I have a couple Samba4 servers in production;  there tools do indeed use
the /etc/krb5.conf.  The Keberos GNOME-online-account should be able to
get Kerberos credentials that let you connect to Active Directory
enabled components.  Or even kinit / klist.

BTW, the Samba people ask that Samba4 be referred to as "Samba 4" as it
is not a distinct entity from Samba 3, or just "Samba", now that it is
released.  There isn't technically a "Samba 4" vs. a "Samba 3".  Samba
4.x.y replaces / obsoletes Samba 3.x.y, just like Samba 3.x.y obsoleted
Samba 2.x.y.  It is just an amazingly more powerful and flexible version
of has-been-awesome-for-decades Samba.
