Fedora is using MIT Kerberos implementation as its Kerberos infrastructure of
Andreas Schneider 9fd3e16
choice. The Samba build in Fedora is using MIT Kerberos implementation in order

to allow system-wide interoperability between both desktop and server
7b90224
applications running on the same machine.

At the moment the Samba Active Directory Domain Controller implementation is
Andreas Schneider 9fd3e16
not available with MIT Kereberos. FreeIPA and Samba Team members are currently
Andreas Schneider 9fd3e16
working on Samba MIT Kerberos support as this is a requirement for a GNU/Linux
Andreas Schneider 9fd3e16
distribution integration of Samba AD DC features.

We have just finished migrating the file server and all client utilities to MIT
Andreas Schneider 9fd3e16
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
Andreas Schneider 9fd3e16
KDC will be ready.
