[Samba] How do I get an ssh client to authenticate with samba4's kerberos GSSAPI?

Hi Quinn,

I've tried to get ssh Kerberos/gssapi login working on my Samba4 DC,
no luck so far.

However, after joining two VMs to this domain using Samba 3, ssh
logins work between those two machines (not towards the DC).

The only relevant difference I found while searching for a solution,
were differences in the krb5.keytab: it looks like Samba4 and Samba3
create different entries there (upper/lower case differ). I don't have
the VMs up and running at the moment, but I can supply the details if
it helps to fix this problem - just let me know.

Bye,
   Marcel

Hi,

Forgot to mention that the client side's ssh configuration
(/etc/ssh/ssh_config) has the following lines:
    GSSAPIAuthentication yes
    GSSAPIDelegateCredentials yes
    GSSAPITrustDns yes

The server side ssh configuration (/etc/ssh/sshd_config) has the following
lines:
    GSSAPIAuthentication yes
    GSSAPIKeyExchange yes
    GSSAPICleanupCredentials yes

br,
Quinn
