G'day everyone,

Please correct me if I am wrong. So when you provision an AD DC using the
samba-tool command line utility the following files are created or modified:
  smb.conf
  *.ldb / *.tdb
  krb5.conf
  resolv.conf
  /etc/hosts

Are there any other files that Samba creates or changes?

I have also noticed a lot of discussion on the mailing list around
Kerberos. My understanding is Samba uses Kerberos as it's authentication
protocol. Are there other authentication protocols that Samba uses apart
from Kerberos?
