Lets start with /etc/krb5.conf

Samba doesn't need most of what you will find in it, this is mostly
because most of what you will find there, is a default setting.
Believe it, or believe it not, you only really need:

[libdefaults]
    default_realm = AD.TAO.AT

using 'search' in /etc/resolv.conf means you use host-name lookups

/etc/hosts should contain information in the following format:

ipaddress 'canonical-name' 'alias' 

'canonical-name' is anotherway of saying FQDN
'alias' is another way of saying short hostname

When trying to identify a problem, you start with the obvious from the
info supplied and fix anything that might be causing the problem.
If this doesn't work, then look further, ask other questions etc
