[Samba] samba-tool domain backup offline fails

[L.P.H. van Belle]

Hai, 

it this also know, i you already have authenticated with kerberos, you need to re-enter the smb password.  

kinit Administrator 
samba-tool domain backup online --server=dc1.$(hostname -d) \
 --targetdir=/root/samba-backup -k yes

That runs but ... Also has a small error. :-(  ... this.. 
This comes later on.. 

Backing up sysvol files (via SMB)...
Password for [Administrator at REALM_HERE]:

since i authenticatied with kerberos already, i would not have expected an password question here. :-/ 



Greetz, 

Louis
