It shouldn't accept -D at all probably... it does it so that the Linux
client can use the Windows server, but there's probably a way of failing
it if you try it on a Linux server.
You'll get PAM authentication if it's enabled (check the output from
configure) and SystemAuth=Yes. PAM is pretty much mandatory if you're
using things like shadow passwords.
