We currently use openldap/samba for our directory services.

It uses the older NT type (or mixed mode) authentication, but so far
almost anything that requires windows authentication works fine.

The CentOS DS is likely better, and certainly supports more Active
Directory things ... and we might well use it as a replacement for
openldap/samba.

I am also using smbldap-tools from here:
