I need to connect to sql server using Windows authentication on a mac.
I want to use kinit
but I have problem with generate DC name.
On windows I ran command:
nltest /dsgetdc:xx.xx.com
And output is:
GETTING DS NAME FAILED: STATUS = 1355 0X54B ERROR_NO_SUCH_DOMAIN.
I can log into this server on windows using SQL Server Management Studio so I know the account I want to use is working for the level of access I want to grant.
How can I connect with this server to get kerberos tickets / use an AD account in general with Finder to mount shares?

We use Apple Enterprise connect to get kerberos tickets
You could use macOS to bind directly, but there's pain there unless you are just binding your personal workstation and not deploying that across an enterprise. A solution that isn't Apple is NoMad (which was recently acquired by JAMF software)
As long as they are still allowing downloads of that tool, I would start there and then work up to something larger / different if you have a reason to do so.
I would repeat, don't bind until you have exhausted all other options.
