I submitted a small patch to Samba for using local srvtabs in order to obtain AFS tickets for Samba using encrypted passwords. This is not as secure as schemes suggested by among others Allan Bjorklund on the samba-ntdom mailing list, but it works without having to modify the clients. It's sufficient for us with mainly Solaris workstations and a few NT clients. The patch requires Kerberos 4. Does this make sense to you. (This I should probably have asked before submitting the patch.) http://samba.org/samba-patches?findid=43 or http://www.fusion.kth.se/~johanh/afs-ticket-patch.tar /Johan Hedin /---------------------------------------------------------------------\ | Johan Hedin | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Ph.D. Student and System Manager | http://www.fusion.kth.se/~johanh | \---------------------------------------------------------------------/
