hi,

far know, active directory doesn’t support non windows clients. if need apply password policy unix or linux clients, may need third party products.

regarding single sign on, it’s enabled in ad. ad user should able visit ad resource directly. please let know more "as have several passwords remember", 1 windows logon, other passwords for?
