Dear list,

To my knowledge (and after some tests), msktutil requires a separate account in active directory for each service principal needed for a machine.

For instance, if a Linux computer is going to need a host/ and a http/ service principal it would be nessesary to run msktutil twice, such as:

msktutil -h fqdn --computer-name linux-computer --verbose -s host/fqdn -k linuxComputer.keytab --server domainControllerFqdn

msktutil -h fqdn --computer-name linux-computer-http --verbose -s http/fqdn -k linuxComputerHttp.keytab --server domainControllerFqdn

I just wanted to confirm this was the case, or whether it is possible to have both host/ and http/ under the same account in AD.

Thanks in advance for any help,

John
