installing krb5-user

Asked by ahmad kibirige

My major problem is am trying to join my ubuntu 6 station to an Active directory(windows 2003 server) on our Domain(called CYBER.COM).The Computer name for the Domain is MAINSERVER(IP ADDRESS 192.168.0.3 on our Local Network).Am new to Ubuntu and I got a step by step on the internet and followed it.
I installed Samba using ($ sudo apt-get install samba samba-doc smbclient
smbfs )
Then winbind ($ sudo apt-get install winbind )
When it came to installing keberos 5,Trouble started.I downloaded the gz fil (e krb5-1.2.2.tar)and tried to uncompress it but was bring errors during uncompressing-like "cannot open........".This happened on about three gz files i downloaded.
Then i tried the debians,These installed and where asking several dependencies ,i started a mess of dependencies which i tried to download and install but each kept needing more dependencies.Some errors where i had lower versions,i tried to download the asked versions.Below is some of the files i used
krb5-user_1.4.4-5ubuntu2_i386.deb
krb5-config_1.6_all.deb
libkrb53_1_1.4.4-7_i386.deb
libss2_1.35-6ubuntu1_i386.deb
After settling that I wanted to use the tool SADMS for configuring my ubuntu using the graphical interface.Because I hadnt settled the Krb5 issue,SADMS installed but couldnot configure and was complaining of krb5 not being installed.
Please if there is a step by step u can give me using the info i gave up I will very grateful..My bosses are fed up with viruses,,they want ubuntu clients on windwos server.
thanks

sadms-2.0.7.tar

Package krb5-user is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  krb5-doc
E: Package krb5-user has no installation candidate
