Summary: Kerberos support in rdesktop for passwordless logins

Initial Comment:
Hi,

I sent a message to -devel about this too.  I would
LOVE to see passwordless logins to Windows TS
environments using Kerberos tickets.

Ie: I'm on a linux box, I have a Kerberos ticket for a
realm.  A windows TS box exists, using that realm.  I
hit rdesktop up against it, rdesktop gets a ticket for
the host principal from the KDC, sends it to the TS
server, and I'm logged in w/o a password prompt.

Ideally, rdesktop would also handle forwarding my
ticket so that I would be able to use it on the Windows
server too.

It would be k-rad.  Please see my post at:

thanks,
adam

RDP does not have support for user authentication using Kerberos, see

for more information, Kerberos/CredSSP is used to authenticate servers.

However commit r1676 brings (Kerberos + CredSSP) to rdesktop.
