Open Directory definitely makes it easier. I tried for many years to wrap my head around LDAP & Kerberos auth using different linux and UNIX flavors and just couldn't get it. A few checkboxes and text fields and you have a fully functional Directory and KDC. Maybe now after seeing it fully working it would be a bit easier to go back and setup a linux on linux auth setup but using Open Directory cleared up some of the haze and is much simpler to get going.

  I completely agree. I often use OS X as a prototyping tool for Linux. If I wonder how something works on Linux, I set it up on OS X, look at the config files etc.
