Noobie Kerberos / single signon question.

Hi!
I have the starting details, but I need to know the "big-picture" view of setting up Kerberos, and configuring my other linux boxes to use it for authentication.

I followed this howto:
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Kerberos-I...WTO/index.html

To configure my server, and it seems to be running. I installed krb5-workstation on a test client, and I "think" I configured it. But now what? If create users on my clients, how will the password be stored? Will they share a userid? Will my KDE and Gnome session use kerberos now, or do I have to configure them? What about Samba?

All the stuff I find on Google assumes that I already know what I'm doing
I need a few sentences on "user creation and management with kerberos"

Thanks!

Charlweed



P.S.
What I'm REALLY trying to do, is get rid of a Windows 2000 Server + Exchange. So when I figure everything out, my new FC7 server will be a Samba Domain Controller, and run Scalix. If there is a shortcut for this ( like Fedora Directory Server ?) , I'd be really interested
