First thing - I'd like to say a big "THANK YOU" to the developers.
I just upgraded to samba-3.0.23 and I've noticed an alarming issue with
respect to my configuration.
I've been using the built-in keytab management and it looks like the updated
code no longer creates the userPrincipal in Active Directory.
Whether this is an issue for others or not, it would be nice to have seen a
reference to it in the release notes. Since having the user principal in the
keytab and a cron job to renew the ticket are critical for me to use
pam_krb5, I'm going to attempt to figure out what code needs to be added
back from 3.0.22. In the defense of the authors, examining a Win2k3 server
does not show the userPrincipal value being set, although I sort of
considered this functionality to be the primary aim in using Samba for the
keytab management.
While I'm on my soap box, would it be possible to hear some clarification on
the value of some of the principals created in the keytab (MIT Kerberos)?
When I look at Active Directory using ADSI Edit, I see 4 servicePrincipal
values created as a result of "net ads join" -
host/host, host/fqdn, cifs/host, cifs/fqdn.
When I use ktutil to view the keys in the table, I'm confronted with output
that doesn't make any sense to me.
Note that I've substituted generic host/domain/realm info and I've forcibly
constrained the encryption types to rc4-hmac and des-cbc-md5
slot KVNO Principal

No offense intended, but what is the purpose of adding the variations of
case especially with respect to the FQDN?
When I look at the tickets that are the result of making connections from
one Win2K3 server to another, the principals simply reflect the form of the
requests - ie \\FOO yields principal cifs/[EMAIL PROTECTED], \\foo.bar.com 
yields
principal cifs/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
What am I missing?
Thank you,
Scott
