hi

IPAddress is an attribute of a computer object but Unix objects may not be able to provide this:

The property is "IpV4Address" and "IpV6Address.

get-adcomputer -prop *v-Filter * | select ipv4address,ipv6address

Addresses require full PTR records in DNS.

Check your DNS for the reverse PTR records.  Also the address requires that the Unix system supports the LDAP queries from AD.  If it doesn't have that support installed and configured then AD will only have a blank computer record in AD because the system is not joined to AD.

Unix support in AD requires many steps to set up correctly in AD and on the Unix system.  Post in DirectoryServices forum for help with this.  It cannot be solved with a script.

Yes - only available if the DNS is AD integrated.  For Unix systems this requires Unix support in AD and on the Unix client.  The Unix system must use the AD integrated DNS server  and register with the DNS server.

I have never done a Unix integration so I am unclear on all of the steps. 

The issue would be better served in the AD forum or in a Unix/LDAP forum.

Here is a good place to start: Authenticate and Integrate Linux with Active Directory

WS2012r2 and WS2016 have more integration tools so search for those documents.
