[cifs-protocol] Please provide windows behaviour notes on MS-KILE's reference to Referrals-11

I'm trying to understand Microsoft's behaviour around referrals to
trusted domains, and referrals as generated between the NetBIOS and DNS
names for a domain.

I think this is meant to be covered by
http://tools.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-krb-wg-kerberos-referrals-11 referred to as Referrals-11 in MS-KILE.

However, what I really need is some detail on exactly how Microsoft
implements it, as sadly I have little confidence that Windows 2003
follows exactly an RFC proposal last dated in 2008 :-)

Presumably these need to be addressed in Windows behaviour notes. 

In particular, I'm looking at the example archived here: 
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.samba.internals/53515

The issue in this case is that the user logs in with DOMAIN\user and
Samba attempts to transform that into user at REALM, but the client does
not appear to accept the cross-realm ticket (to ourselves) that we
generate. 

Any assistance you can give would be most welcome. 

Thanks,

Andrew Bartlett
