This is what I'd heard.
Jeremy or others, you don't have any docs or howtos that point to
setting this up do you?

I was told recently that Kerberos authentication won't work against a

for Samba running on say RHEL, to authenticate against a Linux server
running MIT Kerberos?
In general, it is not possible for *Samba* to authenticate against a MIT
Kerberos server. Technically, it's not possible, period, with Samba 3. With
Samba 4, I am less sure, but I would assume you are trying to work with
Samba 3.
That's just not true. Many people are successfully using Samba3 to authenticate
with tokens from MIT or Heimdal kerberos servers.
The problem is getting the Windows clients to *get* these tickets, not in
Samba interpreting them.
Check out the "use kerberos keytab" option in smb.conf for a common use
of this.
Please don't spread erroneous info on the list.
Thanks,
Jeremy.
