[plug] Solaris / SMB authentication

[Steve Baker]

Hi PLUG,

Hope you'll forgive the slight off-topicness. I have a Solaris (Omni-OS, 
actually) installation with Napp-IT. I have connected it to my AD domain 
and I can see/use the SMB shares if I connect from a logged-in windows 
workstation, and I can assign ACLs using Windows Groups etc.

Using smbclient to connect to the SMB share from a Linux system, or any 
other mechanism that tries to authenticate directly to the napp-it box, 
fails.

I _think_ that what is happening is that when connecting from a windows 
box, the Kerberos ticket is handed over and Solaris/SMB accepts it. My 
understanding of Kerberos is very limited, is this what is happening?  
How can I connect to the SMB shares and get the Solaris box to 
authenticate properly?

Doing the same thing on Linux works the way it is supposed to, I don't 
have this problem.  I'd like to stick with Napp-IT though if possible...

Regards,
Steve
