As it has already been said, your question is not copletely clear.

If you want that your debian machine be part of a windows active
directory domain, read samba documantation (go to /usr/share/doc/samba*
afrer a apt-get install samba-doc). You might also do a google search
for samba active directory. 

After having read the documentation, with "apt-cache search samba" you
can see all debian packages related to samba. One example:

$ apt-cache search samba pam
lg-issue105 - Issue 105 of the Linux Gazette.
ldapscripts - Add and remove user and groups (stored in a ldap directory)
libpam-smbpass - pluggable authentication module for SMB/CIFS password database
samba - a LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix
libpam-mount - PAM module that can mount volumes for a user session

so you might want to configure pam (which is used in most cases to
authenticate users in GNU/linux) to use a SMB/CIFS or a ldap server.
