The Active Directory domain controller support in Samba 4 relies on Heimdal, and the functionality it depends on is not available in MIT Kerberos. There is an effort by RedHat to get Samba4 to work with MIT instead of Heimdal, but that project isn't complete yet: http://k5wiki.kerberos.org/wiki/Projects/Samba4_Port http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/MIT_KDC Providing a custom source package with binary packages of Samba's client code linked against MIT Kerberos would be an option, but also a significant chunk of work.
