Yes. I believe you have to have an entry associated with the principal in Fedora DS. So yes, you will have to sync your user information from AD to Fedora DS. > In doing this will I have then enabled GSSAPI/Kerberos authentication > or will I still be missing something?

What are you using Fedora DS for? Are you just using it as an authentication gateway to AD? If so, then you could probably just use something like pam_winbindd and skip Fedora DS altogether. > (Given that I will be syncing users (and groups?) only).
