Hi, 

Heimdal Kerberos vs MIT kerberos on Samba is a complete different story
, the same doesn't happen in Fedora ?

I'm already using CentOS Stream 8 and I'm happy, from 
https://www.centos.org/centos-stream/ [1] it is very easy to switch. 
AFAICT upgrading to Centos 8.4 the focus is already shifted to CentOS
Stream , but this is only my impression is not a fact 
 
[1]
# dnf install centos-release-stream
# dnf swap centos-{linux,stream}-repos
# dnf distro-sync
# cat /etc/centos-release
CentOS Stream release 8
