I'm talking through my hat here, but three bits of possibly useful info:
- winbind, part of Samba, is used in parts of GNU/Linux / legacy MS
Windows authentication. This might be of use here, though I think
I'm off on this one.
- AFAIK, there are only a limited subset of connection methods
available for GNU/Linux <=> Exchange servers, without third-party
add-ons. That would be POP3 and _possibly_ IMAP support. Again,
I've got very little experience here.
- There are third party add-on modules which provide full Exchange <=>
GNU/Linux interoperability, as far as mail and messaging go.
Calendars are still a black art. Ximian Connector (now from Novell
I suppose) and Samsung Contact (IIRC) are the two leaders.
Peace.
