You can set up a trust from your AD Domain(s) to your Kerberos realm, 
and them use the userprincipal field of AD to map a AD user account to a 
kerb princ.  This allows you, effectively, to use your login info from 
your krb5 realm, but get a SID and other AD info (group membership, 
personal info, etc) from AD.

There is a whitepaper up on MS's site.
