Configure Macintosh systems for Active Directory Domain

as users and groups. Once a computer is bound to an AD domain, users belonging to
that domain may login to the Macintosh system at the main login prompt. If you do
this task, you must also enable Access Control Lists on the K2 storage you access,
either the K2 Media Server (FSM) for SAN access or the stand-alone K2 system.
