5.9. Test Authentication
It should now be possible to authenticate using an Active Directory User's credentials:
su - username
If this works, then other login methods (getty, ssh) should also work.
If the computer account was created, indicating that the system was "joined" to the domain, but authentication is unsuccessful, it may be helpful to review /etc/pam.d and nssswitch.conf as well as the file changes described earlier in this guide.
