[Samba] Kerberos authentication for multiple upstream domains
I've got some Samba 4, and AD, servers running in the same networks. Their domains and local VLAN's are distinct, but clients can reach either through the local switches. So far, so good. The issue is that I've got systems using local accounts, with Kerberos based authentication, on RHEL 6 clients. There are a stack of reasons not to use the LDAP account or tie the AD or Samba servers more directly together, but I'd love for users to be able to authenticate against one or the other Kerberos service, as needed, based on whichever AD or Samba server they happen to have an account on. Has anyone gotten Kerberos authentication working on Linux for an arbitrary set of upstream Kerberos servers, including Samba domain controllers or AD servers? I can pick an arbitrary single realm quite easily with the "authfonfig --krb5realm" command, but I'd like to permit multiple Kerberos realms.
