Can Windows clients connect via "pass-through" authentication to OSX Server using Kerberos?



But *without* putting the OSX server/Windows clients into Active Directory?


I've set up a "krb5.keytab" file on my OSX server box -- set as a "standalone" server running Samba 3.0.25 -- containing an "afpserver", a "host" and a "cifs" keytab.


I've got a properly set up "edu.mit.Kerberos" file on the OSX server and my Mac.

I can get a Kerberos ticket on my mac.

I can connect with pass-through authentication to my server from my mac via AFP *and* SMB to the server.

But if I install a Kerberos client software (and get a ticket) on my XP and/or Vista boxes, the only authentication I can do to the server is through the standard server account login/password.

No "pass-through" authentication -- which is odd as "smb://<server>" works on the mac (and yes, CIFS isn't the same as Windows, but...)


I keep feeling I'm missing something obvious about this, but I'm wondering if the *only* way to have this work is to put my server (and maybe Windows clients?) into AD.



Anybody successfully done this without putting the server into AD?
