Unfortunately, each major Kerberos implementation uses a substantiallydifferent kadmin protocol (well, Heimdal's kadmind server supports most ofthe MIT protocol), and Microsoft's AD in particular doesn't use the kadminprotocol at all.
You can create something kadmin-like to run on UNIX and create keytabs forAD if you use LDAP to create the object in AD and set its password andthen generate a key from the same password.  I don't know if anyone hasalready done that work and provided it in some easy-to-use packaged form,though.
