--- Comment #12 from Colin Simpson colin.simpson@shyster.org.uk --- Any progress on this at all? It seems like Rob Shearman had code to do this, and because it needed it a bit of a clean up it wasn't included. It seems a shame to lose a good effort like this from the tree.
This would be very nice to have, as we (and lots of other people) authenticate our Linux and Mac's against AD, so these systems have valid Kerberos credentials. So the credentials should be usable by a Wine application, hopefully this patch did this.
This is desirable as when we launch a Wine App like Outlook and it prompts for a username and password (with a save password button). This doesn't look very clean/professional to end users. Makes wine look less joined up and not very enterprise (so therefore crossover doesn't look very enterprise ready). But worst of all, corp security hates passwords being stored in home directories for applications that can't do Kerberos authentication.
