Ubuntu 12.10 - How to change login screen to allow login to active directory domain
So, I have an Ubuntu 12.10 machine that has been joined to an active directory domain. However, when the machine turns on and I am presented with a login screen, I cant just type DOMAINuser. All I can do is select my name (which I entered when I first setup this install) and enter my local password. How do I modifiy the login screen so I cant actually enter my DOMAINuser and AD password to authenticate?
FYI I used LikeWise-Open to authenticate to the windows domain if that matters.
Let me know if you need any further info.
Update: I have added a screenshot of my login screen after running the command that was suggested..

Hmm, no dice. Now, what is this lightdm ting? Do I need to have this installed first? Any other changes needed in order to make this work. I was able to run the command but when I restarted my machine I am left with the same exact prompt that I had before...

I'm not sure if it answers your question or solves your problem.
Press CTRL+ALT+F1 to get into the asci-console.
From there just login with your active-directory username and according password. After you logged in successfully, logout again (with the command: logout) and press CTRL+ALT+F7 to close the console.
The Active-Directory User should now appear...don't ask me why.
