Note: this should be performed exclusively by IT, since it requires Domain Join rights. Therefore, if regular users attempt to run it, it will fail.

Prepare the workstation to join the domain:

sudo ansible-playbook ansible/ad.yml

Test if the workstation can discover AD properly:

realm discover

If yes, you can join the domain with:

sudo realm join --user <user.name>

If not, it may be laggy network, imperfect drivers, disabled promiscuous mode in virtualization etc. Try joining explicitly, i.e. sudo realm join ad.foobar.com.
