CentOS - Dec 2008 - Kerberos for squid auth

When you use kinit to acquire a Kerberos ticket prior to
joining a Win2k3 domain with net ads join -U <upn> is that
ticket merely used for the join that follows? When it expires
does this mean anything?

Thanks,

You use kinit before joining the AD to test AD auth.  That is, you want
to be sure your "linux" side is configured properly to get a kerberos
ticket in the first place.  If you're able to get one, you should be to
join the domain.
