    i do not want any weak encryption on my systems.

    If     "create krb5 conf = no"    in smb.conf means, that i can
specify RC4 and AES in /etc/krb5.conf and then winbind will honor and
not create a ghost krb5.conf.NEBIOSDOMAINNAME, i would greatly
appreciate it being backported.
Of course, i run CentOS 5 and that uses 3.0.33.  How far back is realistic?
