| Samba cannot use the kerberos tickets directly - not unless the KDC is
| Active Directory (for now). But it is possible for Samba to use the
| same password store. (For NTLM, but not kerberos passwords)
|
| What is your KDC? MIT or Heimdal? Are you using the Heimdal LDAP
backend?
|
| If you are running Heimdal, what version? Could you run a current
snapshot?
|
| While the work is still new, there is support in Heimdal to read Samba
| password entries in LDAP. There is also an OpenLDAP plugin to set
| both Samba and Kerberos passwords on password change.
|
| You would need to manually edit your LDAP database, to expose the
| passwords in 'Samba' format - potentially a dump and restore of the
| Heimdal entries might do it, if the sambaSamAccount objectClass was
| added, and you used a current snapshot.
|
| (The type 23 arcfour-hmac-md5 enctype is the Samba NT password)

The hdb-ldap.c (Heimdal using NTPassword) changes seems to be integrated
in current Heimdal snapshots.
Where could we find the LDAP password synchronization patch, what
OpenLDAP version does it applies to?
Thanks,
