It's not working fine with ubuntu 12.04 as I had to use a ppa for sssd 
and i cannot install libpam-sss due to unresolved dependency.
So I'm using older libpam-sss but while authenticating, I get the error 
:pam_sss(lightdm:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 
tty=:1 ruser= rhost= user=NT4Domain/MyUser

I'll try on Ubuntu 13.10.
Unless there's a way to install the dependency manually

It's not done, but I plan to use NFS and automount to link users's home 
directory to a shared folder on the network.
On Windows workstation, the home folder is linked to a network letter.

I'm wondering if I can put in the same shared folder home directory and 
windows profiles ...
