1. Create the user "kitten" and set the password "ropebucketU!":

   adduser kitten
   echo "kitten:ropebucketU!" | chpasswd
   

2. Install the required packages for joining the domain:

   yum install -y realmd sssd samba-common-tools
   

3. Use nmtui to configure the static IP address, gateway, and DNS settings:

   nmtui
   

   Set the following values:

   • IP address: 172.16.1.15/24
   • Gateway: 172.16.1.2
   • DNS: 172.16.1.12, 172.16.1.13
   • Domain: kitten.local

4. Discover the "kitten.local" domain:

   realm discover kitten.local
   

5. Join the "kitten.local" domain using the "Administrator" user:

   realm join --user=Administrator kitten.local
   

   Enter the Administrator password when prompted.
