We now have authentication to IIS working with Max OSX 10.3. However, we cannot find a 
way to get Safari to forward credentials to IIS. The initial tgt is forwardable, but 
it is not being forwarded ... I can see that normally a Safari user would only want to 
allow their web server application determine their identity and this is clearly 
working, but our needs are beyond that since we want the IIS application to use the 
users credentials to setup a security context with a third-tier ...

Thankyou.
Can you let me know when/if you hear of a solution being available. I will do likewise.

I've been told this should work on Panther (not sure about Jaguar).  I did a network 
trace, and sure enough, my Mac asked for a service ticket.
Unfortunately, the service principal name was "www" (yep - that's the whole thing).  
I'm waiting to hear back from Apple on how they came up with this principal name, but 
I'm guessing that they don't understand Kerberos.
Perhaps they will fix this - hopefully soon.  I believe they tested the Kerberos stuff 
with an Apache web server and not with IIS.
