Integrate a Linux Host with a Windows AD for Kerberos SSO authentication

Overview

Kerberos Authentication support is particularly useful for Enterprise networks that have a Microsoft AD based Domain controller. By properly configuring the necessary Kerberos related factors, your enterprise Internet users can optionally enjoy Windows Integrated Authentication. Windows Integrated Authentication is a non-interactive authentication process, that uses SSO authentication.

SSO, thus not only just adds convenience to the overall user experience, but also enhances security.
