From b824b1b7bf19b4b8c64b7c2c5a6a1d3287820088 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Volker Lendecke Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2009 14:56:41 +0200 Subject: Add a parameter to disable the automatic creation of krb5.conf files This is necessary because MIT 1.5 can't deal with certain types (Tree Root) of transitive AD trusts. The workaround is to add a [capaths] directive to /etc/krb5.conf, which we don't automatically put into the krb5.conf winbind creates. The alternative would have been something like a "krb5 conf include", but I think if someone has to mess with /etc/krb5.conf at this level, it should be easy to add the site-local KDCs as well. Next alternative is to correctly figure out the [capaths] parameter for all trusted domains, but for that I don't have the time right now.
