MIT Kerberos 5 Support

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

Fedora is using MIT Kerberos implementation as its Kerberos infrastructure of
|
|
|
9bc910 |
choice. The Samba build in Fedora is using MIT Kerberos implementation in order
|
|
|
9bc910 |
to allow system-wide interoperability between both desktop and server
|
|
|
9bc910 |
applications running on the same machine.

At the moment the Samba Active Directory Domain Controller implementation is
|
|
|
9bc910 |
not available with MIT Kereberos. FreeIPA and Samba Team members are currently
|
|
|
9bc910 |
working on Samba MIT Kerberos support as this is a requirement for a GNU/Linux
|
|
|
9bc910 |
distribution integration of Samba AD DC features.

We have just finished migrating the file server and all client utilities to MIT
|
|
|
9bc910 |
Kerberos. The result of this work is available in samba-* packages in Fedora.
|
|
|
9bc910 |
We'll provide Samba AD DC functionality as soon as its support of MIT Kerberos
|
|
|
9bc910 |
KDC will be ready.
