Subject: How to join RHEL 7 Linux Server to Active Directory Domain

Good day from Singapore,

I didn't realize it is so easy to join RHEL 7 Linux server to Active
Directory Domain.

You only need a few simple commands.

# yum install sssd realmd oddjob oddjob-mkhomedir adcli samba-common
samba-common-tools krb5-workstation openldap-clients
policycoreutils-python -y

# realm join -v --user=[domain user account] addc01.project.domain.com

# realm list
project.domain.com
type: kerberos
realm-name: PROJECT.DOMAIN.COM
domain-name: project.domain.com
configured: kerberos-member
server-software: sssd
required-package: oddjob
required-package: oddjob-mkhomedir
required-package: sssd
required-package: adcli
required-package: samba-common-tools
login-formats: %U at project.domain.com
login-policy: allow-realm-logins

That's it.
