Greg,

Thankyou. I hoped this was the case, but wasn't sure.

Regards,
Tim

The PKINIT code in MIT krb5 attempts to interoperate with MS AD, and to the best of my knowledge does so, although we don't regularly test that scenario.

(That's the result of a lot of deliberate code, though; draft-9 and the RFC implementation are not interoperable, and I believe they use different preauth codes as a result of there being draft-9 implementations in the field.)
