Joining Rocky Linux 9.5 to Windows Server 2025 AD ----- Failed to set machine obj password?

Has anyone in the community have issues joining RL9.5 to a 2025 AD?

I have a service user with basically full domain permission, I verified the ciphers enabled in krb5 and also what’s allowed by policy on the AD server and I run into this issue:

Unfortunately their solution and/or workaround is hidden behind a paywall…

If anyone can chime in, it’d be great…

Also one of the MSFT Auth Devs pins the issue on their end, but I’m wondering if something is happening on our front to mitigate this issue?

PS: Ubuntu and a bunch of other builds of Linux are also suffering the same issues.

Is this using realmd and sssd ? Have you tried Samba ?
