Active Directory integration for Linux and Solaris - possible with Puppet ?

[Zalezny Niezalezny]

Dear Colleagues, 

in our enterpreise environment we are planning to integrate two server groups with Active Directory: Linux Systems and Solaris systems.

At the moment we are using RHEL 5/6 and Solaris 10/11.

1) Is it possible with Puppet ?

2) Is it possible to create central user management system base connected with Active Directory and integrated with Linux and Solaris machines ?

Maybe somebody done this already ? Maybe somebody can publish here some opinions ?

Thanks in advance for the answers.

With kind regards

Zalezny
