=======================

Fedora is using MIT Kerberos implementation as its Kerberos infrastructure of
a3a04f
choice. The Samba build in Fedora is using MIT Kerberos implementation in order
a3a04f
to allow system-wide interoperability between both desktop and server
a3a04f
applications running on the same machine.

At the moment the Samba Active Directory Domain Controller implementation is
a3a04f
not available with MIT Kereberos. FreeIPA and Samba Team members are currently
a3a04f
working on Samba MIT Kerberos support as this is a requirement for a GNU/Linux
a3a04f
distribution integration of Samba AD DC features.

We have just finished migrating the file server and all client utilities to MIT
a3a04f
Kerberos.  The result of this work is available in samba-* packages in Fedora.

We'll provide Samba AD DC functionality as soon as its support of MIT Kerberos
a3a04f
KDC will be ready.
