Integrating PowerBroker Identity Services Open Edition (PBIS) with Ubuntu

PowerBroker Identity Services Open Edition (aka PBIS) is an open source product that allows you to leverage your investment in Microsoft Active Directory for consistent security policy across your entire environment, including your Linux, Unix, and Mac OS X desktops and servers. With this free, agent-based tool, you’ll be able to join the systems to AD in less than five minutes.

PBIS replaces the likewise-open product. We have successfully integrated with Ubuntu 12.04 and 13.04. Here are the steps for installing and integration PBIS with Ubuntu.
