Hi Maxim, (1)(2) libmapi is currently using NTLMSSP for authentication which is why you need to supply username and password. (3) libmapi doesn't provide kerberos support yet, but since we are using the Samba4 DCERPC stack and samba4 supports krb5 properly, there is normally no technical blocking factors. It is just a matter of finding available resources to work on this and update the code to add krb5 support.
