After a lot of reading and emailing, it comes down to this.  libkrb5-3 version 1.8x by default disallows DES encryption.  /etc/krb5.conf can be changed to allow weak encryption, but as it relates to Samba, is only effective in letting the system join the domain.  For it's internal functioning, winbind uses an autogenerated krb5.conf that resides in /var/run/samba.  This krb5.conf has no knowledge of allow_weak_crypto=true.  Sam Hartman, the maintainer of libkrb5-3 in Debian, has taken over the responsibility of fixing that package, rather than the Samba maintainers doing a change there.  In the interim, winbind is broken with libkrb5-3 version 1.8x.  We can only hope this fix is soon coming.

    i do not want any weak encryption on my systems.

    If     "create krb5 conf = no"    in smb.conf means, that i can
specify RC4 and AES in /etc/krb5.conf and then winbind will honor and
not create a ghost krb5.conf.NEBIOSDOMAINNAME, i would greatly
appreciate it being backported.
Of course, i run CentOS 5 and that uses 3.0.33.  How far back is realistic?
