Dear Markus,
 
Please i have few confusions which i want to satisfy.
 
1. If kerberos Authentication fails then what would be the fallback behavior would the Basic authentication to Ldap will be used instead? Does it need to be defined? what is the best strategy as Basic Authentication will be in clear text. In microsoft Environment the fallback is to NTLM authentication if kerberos fails isnt it a better strategy.
 
 
 
2. Isnt it better to use the combinition of kerberos/ldap only for SSO with active directory? Why winbind/Samba is referred in many tutorials while to me it look redundant? does it give any additional benefit or is it more stable? can u please enlighten me.
 
 
 
 
regards,
Bilal
