If you only need it for Admin access. 
This is how i did it. 

I have 1 linux account that has sudo rights. ( its not used normaly only for admin if windows/samba fails ) 
I have a windows group (with GID assigned), that is in the sshd config. 
 And I have few windows users in the windows group. 

The linux acount goes like normal. 
The windows account use SSO logins with kerberos. 

In sshd_config 

# Allow groups the windows and linux group
AllowGroups Allow-Win2LinuxAdmins-SSH local-admins

# And the options i use for kerberos. 
# GSSAPI options
GSSAPIAuthentication yes
GSSAPICleanupCredentials yes
GSSAPIStrictAcceptorCheck yes
GSSAPIKeyExchange yes
GSSAPIStoreCredentialsOnRekey yes

( offcourse on debian ) 
You also need krb5-users
And run pam-auth-update

Test it with kinit username 
Should be sufficient. 



Greetz,
