Yes , We had to set up a certificate server in our domain and issue certificates to our domain controllers -- I am omitting that part of the story. Yes , we dont want to use local accounts.  So we would have to use AdmitMAC or centrify to take the place of the "middleware" in osx which, for the windows PC's is Activclient.

...which still wouldn't log you in without significant work in the AD
domain.

You don't need ActivClient on OS X (RSA2048 issues with Apple's PIV tokend
aside).  You *do* need to enable local accounts if that's what you want
using sc_auth, *or* you need something like ADmitMac or Centrify if you're
trying to log into an AD account.
