Chapter 38. System roles that provide identity management features

If your organization uses Microsoft Active Directory (AD) to centrally manage users, groups, and other resources, you can join your Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) host to this AD. AD users can then log into RHEL and you can make services on the RHEL host available for authenticated AD users. By using the ad_integration RHEL system role, you can automate the integration of Red Hat Enterprise Linux system into an Active Directory (AD) domain.
