Just a data point - my Samba 3.6.1 (and earlier) also had the same (or
similar) problem some times ago - it would work and authenticate local
users, it would join AD without any problems, but it would fail
authenticating from it with Kerberos errors. I went through many a
WireShark traces without any result. Some times ago it suddenly
started working fine, without me doing any change in the mean time, so
I went through the recent package updates. The only one I found to be
linked to this was the recent upgrade to security/gnutls (the setup I
am using is with security=AD). Earlier Samba upgrade did not force me
to upgrade this; it is not listed as a dependency. BTW winbind was
working OK even then, wbinfo -{u|g} returning what was expected.
