Yes, if your user database is AD.

You could use e.g., plain LDAP if you have access to {nthash}passwords

Yes. You must have winbind running, no need for smbd or nmbd, and you
must do "net ads join ..." once.

Please let us know of your results. The settings seem to always differ
more or less between different environments.
