Hi 
I have set-up a Mac using OS X and  Kerberos client to authenticate against
Win2000 Active Directory, This seems to be working as I am collecting a
Ticket.  I do have a couple of quick questions though.
Is it possible to use this authenticate information to mount shares from the
Win2000 Domain, at present I am prompted for user info for every share using
SMB or just once for using AFP. Does Kerberos allow me to access the user
and password info so I can pass this to a script, to mount the shares. Last
but by no means list can I access more detail user information such as user
home share and group membership through Kerberos ( or any other way for that
matter).
Any help or pointers would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Brian Ling
