The web server will need to require authentication, and will need to be configured to participate in the Kerberos realm. This isn't really a CF issue. You may need to change your CF application to pull personalization data from Oracle based on the value of CGI.AUTH_USER which is generally populated when you use web server authentication. I have no idea whether CGI.AUTH_USER will definitely be populated in this case, though.
