Hello Rowland,

I was talking about an local account on the windows client side. Authentication against the samba server is using NTLMSSP in this case. I thought the file explorer may use kerberos if an valid ticket
exists, which is not the case. Was just a wild guess.  Kerberos only works if an domain account is used to log in on the windows client.
