Hi there: I'm just setting up a Samba as member of an Active Directory Domain. I followed instructions according to a lof of sites that mentions that we must configure NTP, Kerberos, Winbind, among others. Then mention that I should run kinit + bla bla bla.
OK this works fine, but I'm not pretty sure about how Kerberos really works with Samba and when tickets are needed: 1. After a ticket expires Samba still works fine, users can access shares without problems. Why? 2. Do I need to renew a ticket to get some functionality work after or before doing something? 3. Who's reponsible of renewing tickets? I was searching at Google about Samba, Kerberos, Active Directory and tickets purporse but I didn't find a good explanation. I'd just like to know if I just configure some Kerberos params at the Active Directory Server, or maybe configure a cron to renew tickets or maybe if I just should run kinit once and then forget about Kerberos forever. Could someone point me to a link where some good explanation about these components if available? Because I'm about to release a server in production and I want to be careful.
