openSUSE 10.3 is not SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) 10.

SLE 10 was made from the same source code as 10.1.

10.3 (and even 10.2 and 11.0) requires for example a different glibc
version.  Same with Kerberos as you have seen.

Please try to use
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/samba:/STABLE/SLE_10/
and I expect you run into less trouble.
