It is not clear how you want to interact with AD. You could opt
for pam_ldap using AD as a LDAP repository -> quite painfull I would
not reccomend it

You could use a generic LDAP and have AD sync passwords there

Meta solutions are quite expensive and generalloy usefull when several

For an internal project I've build a password capture dll for AD and
done password sync on an iPlanet 5.0 LDAP.
