Hi Matthias, if you run winbind on that machine, you can also have winbind maintain the kerberos keytab /etc/krb5.keytab for you, even if you do not use it in PAM or NSS. We use the following keytab related settings in smb.conf: kerberos method = secrets only sync machine password to keytab = "/etc/krb5.keytab:sync_account_name:sync_upn:sync_spns:spn_prefixes=host:sync_etypes:sync_kvno:additional_dns_hostnames:machine_password" Best wishes Christian On 2/4/26 12:43, Stefan Kania via samba wrote: > Hi Matthias, > > first you need to create a keytab for your principal with: > > samba-tool domain exportkeytab [email protected] > /path/for/keytab/youraccount.keytab > > Then, if you want to use the keytab for authentication with the > ldap-tools do > > kinit -k -t /path/for/keytab/youraccount.keytab youraccount > > create a ldap.conf with the right URI and BASE then do a > > ldapsearch > > without any arguments this should list all the Objects youraccount has > prmission to see. > > > > Am 04.02.26 um 07:45 schrieb Matthias Kühne | Ellerhold > Aktiengesellschaft via samba: >> I can run kinit '[email protected]' and it prompts me for a >> PW.
