<description>
<para>This parameter determines whether or not
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbclient</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> and other samba components
acting as a client will attempt to use the server-supplied
principal sometimes given in the SPNEGO exchange.</para>
<para>If enabled, Samba can attempt to use Kerberos to contact
servers known only by IP address. Kerberos relies on names, so
ordinarily cannot function in this situation. </para>
<para>If disabled, Samba will use the name used to look up the
server when asking the KDC for a ticket. This avoids situations
where a server may impersonate another, soliciting authentication
as one principal while being known on the network as another.
</para>
<para>Note that Windows XP SP2 and later versions already follow
this behaviour, and Windows Vista and later servers no longer
supply this 'rfc4178 hint' principal on the server side.</para>
