Yes, it implements a Kerberos KDC internally.

No additional package is required. 

Have you installed from the Samba 4.0 tarball, git or is this a Samba
package you obtained from somewhere?  (Most Samba packages at this stage
are incomplete in one way or another, as distributions catch up with the
full and official Samba 4.0 release).

Are there any errors in the logs?

Is it bound to the other ports?

Thanks,
