From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It can run as a domain controller in active directory as well (2016 functional level now supported)
Can confirm that it can do this fairly well.
Source: the time I grabbed a machine we were about to toss and made it a secondary domain controller for our site so we could nuke and pave our misbehaving Server 2012 DC.
(That other one was also a secondary DC - we just needed one on-site so we could prevent our T1 connection to another site from being the bottleneck.)
