I though that enrollment is based only on presence of the keytab. Since
the the principal is not something that can be changed why it can't be
created when the entry is created?
Does the current logic delete the principal when the machine is
un-enrolled from CLI or GUI. It seems logical to just check the presence
of the keytab. If it is there enrolled. If not then does not.
Am I missing something?
