  1. Why not use LTSP-Cluster and integrate the server with your AD.

    LTSP is already integrated into Edubuntu as an option during installation.

  3. I think I would use Clonzilla: http://clonezilla.org/ You have to make an image from one of your computers than restore this image to others. There is a good and useful guide on the web page.I think this is the fastes way, and you also have a clean backup image

    For AD authentication you can use likewise open or Centrify Express both of them free for use. You need to add the domain name the rest will be done by the app. On the next logon you can use the domain authentication.

    I hope my answer will be useful
