Given your existing experience, have you looked at anything like Nemeth
et al. Unix and Linux System Administration Handbook Prentice Hall 2011
which covers many aspects of integrating Unix/Linux and MS software? It
was too early to include Samba 4 which brings full AD integration -
there is an article in the current issue of LinuxFormat that covers
this.
