Hi, All.  For what it's worth, at CLASSE we're using SSSD to authenticate our Scientific Linux 6 systems with our Active Directory domain.  We migrated over 200 SL6 systems over night without any reboots or interruptions in service, all using stock software provided in EL6.  So far it's worked very well, other than the pain of moving from an MIT Kerberos domain to what Active Directory provides (losing support for kadmin, etc.).

We're then using Puppet for configuration management of our Windows and Linux (and eventually OS X) systems.
