Well, it's time for a checkpoint...

Andrew Bartlett, in another thread on this list, give another approach :
"Because Kerberos can't be done to an IP address."

And this link from Microsoft too :
https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/322979/kerberos-is-not-used-when-you-connect-to-smb-shares-by-using-ip-addres
By the way, "IP addresses are not names, so Kerberos is not used" does
not mean Samba could not connect to IP, but it mean Samba will not use
Kerberos to do it. Is it only possible ?
