The big thing we need to do (and it really isn't that much work) is to
make the kerberos stuff happen by default, in all of Samba's components.

Currently, pam_winbind does not get a kerberos ticket for the user, even
if they are in AD, and smbclient/libsmbclient/smbprint etc do not use
kerberos, even if the user has a ticket.  (you need to say '-k' on the
command line).  Even if you have a ticket, you need to tell it a bogus
password, otherwise it prompts you anyway...

These are all fixable, and I've written it up in bugs 742 and 743.
