At the moment the Samba Active Directory Domain Controller implementation is
Andreas Schneider 8a46001
not available with MIT Kereberos. FreeIPA and Samba Team members are currently
Andreas Schneider 8a46001
working on Samba MIT Kerberos support as this is a requirement for a GNU/Linux
Andreas Schneider 8a46001
distribution integration of Samba AD DC features.

We have just finished migrating the file server and all client utilities to MIT
Andreas Schneider 8a46001
Kerberos.  The result of this work is available in samba-* packages in Fedora.

We'll provide Samba AD DC functionality as soon as its support of MIT Kerberos

KDC will be ready.
