I just updated the wiki with the latest version of the instructions that
I use. I think they work. Any enhancement is welcome.

By default oVirt uses the Kerberos and LDAP servers that are provided by
DNS. Can you please check what is the result of the following DNS query?

# dig -t SRV _kerberos._tcp.elementary.se

This file is generated from the above mentioned DNS queries. Please let
us know what is the content of your SRV DNS records.

I don't think so. This is a known problem with the Kerberos
implementation in the Java virtual machine. It generates this error when
the SASL minssf configuration parameter is 0. You should be able to
change this OpenLDAP setting as follows:

# cat > fixssf.ldif <<'.'
dn: cn=config
replace: olcSaslSecProps
olcSaslSecProps: noanonymous,noplain,minssf=1
-
.
# ldapmodify -H ldapi:/// -Y EXTERNAL -f fixssf.ldif
