[Samba] Samba + Kerberos ONLY NO AD

Hi,
What I mean by plain kerberos is the ability to use kerberos as an
authentication mechanism to samba instead of smbpasswd. So... when a
particular user tries to map a samba share, samba would use kerberos to
authenticate the user. Samba would be playing the role of a typical
kerberized application in this case.
Thanks,

What you mean by plain kerberos for authentication? You can use pam_krb5
for kerberos authentication and there is no need to use samba in any way
for this to work. If I have understood ur question wrongly, please
correct me.
