I'm new to a Windows-centric organization, but we do have two CentOS 6.6 servers running. I've managed to log in using AD credentials, which shows that integration is working, but I'm curious about how it was set up since nobody seems to remember. I found references to realm and realmd for AD integration, but they aren't installed on my CentOS boxes. How can I find out how these servers are connected to Active Directory? Any tips would be great, as I'm not very familiar with Linux administration yet!

You can start by checking the file `/etc/nsswitch.conf`. This file will tell you which methods the server uses for authentication. My guess is that you'll see 'winbind' listed here, which is often used with Samba for AD integrations.
Got it. I’ll take a look after lunch!
