samba - Aug 2024 - 4.21 net ads keytab commands replaced with what?

Hello Folks,

I've just seen that these commands will be removed in 4.21:

net ads keytab add <principal>
net ads keytab delete <principal>
net ads keytab add_update_ads

What are the alternate tools that can be used to modify the keytab?

Will SPN manipulations continue to work?

Here's what I use:

net ads keytab add_update_ads nfs/$(hostname -f) -U Administrator

Thank You!

Hi Luc,

Have you looked at the release notes for Samba 4.21? Specifically, under 
the heading ?Automatic keytab update after machine password change??

Cheers,
