Winbindd provides NTLM authenticationonly at the moment.
One of the developers is working on extending that
in pam_winbind.  For now you would use pam_krb5 if you
need to enable kerberos auth for Unix services.

Note that smbd supports ticket based authentication for
file and print services when joined to an AD domain.

Sure.  try 3.0.21rc1 for the latest set of improvements.

Winbindd won't write to an SFU enabled AD but it will use

Windows 2000 and 2003 prefer RC4-HMAC and don't support 3des for
kerberos encryption types.

The issue of what authentication types are supported is not really
related to which user information modal is adopted.  That is, I suggest
you chose the use winbind as per the standard documentation, then set
your DC to only accept NTLMv2 and Kerberos (and triple-des kerberos
etc).

The biggest real threat with network security is the LM half of NTLM
authentication, which should be disabled (possibly by group policy) on
the clients.  (Modern clients will negotiate NTLM2, which removes the
problematic LM authentication, but this can be modified by an active
attacker.)

[Samba] Can Winbind go directly to LDAP/Kerberos? Or is it PDC NTLM only?

2005-11-21 Thread SAMBA
Hi.

I am tinkering with PADL and Kerberos PAM, so that I can have account
authentication and directory directly to AD KDC/LDAP.

I always thought that windbind provided support for NT-style PDC for
authentication and referencing account-directory, and thus only work in
AD mixed-mode where PDC emulator is used for backwards compatibility.
However, I was reading a book that seemed to indicate that winbind will
talk directly to Active Directory (authenticate through KDC, reference
account info from LDAP).  Is this true? 

What I would like to do is:
  (1) direct authentication to AD KDC
  (2) referencing AD LDAP for account info
  (3) writing any mapped SID to UID/GID in SFU extended Active Directory
LDAP, instead of local database.

I've been digging through published and online documents, but most
documentation is oriented to old-school PDC.  I want to avoid NTLM and
PDCs of the past for security and performance reasons (NTLM single DES
vs. Kerberos triple DES for instance)
