[Samba] smb.conf realm parameter

[L.P.H. van Belle]

Rowland, 

Do you know is samba is changing the smb value here to uppercase in the background. 
( see: https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/krb5-1.12/doc/admin/realm_config.html )

Because if not, i really suggest we follow the recommendations here, (uppercase REALM) 
a mismatch in realm due to upper/lower case is really hard to find.. 

Just saying.. 


Greetz, 

Louis
