I really don't think that putting keytab code in to Samba is the right answer. Do you really want to be in charge of modifying keytabs? This could get quite complicate -- especially when you multiply the effort by the number of possible encryption types... I don't think it's that

I agree that if Samba is changing the password for a particular kerberos principal, then it should store the hashes in the keytab. The idea of *finally* getting kerberos useful on real sites is just too appealing :-) Naturally, the original plaintext password should stay basically where it

Yes. This is a problem. In the past I have favored a 'krb5 keytab write' option that would write our password out into the standard keytab, but there were good reasons not to. The problem is, I can't remember what they were. Mostly 'if somebody changed our password under us' stuff. Hmm, why
