We're using jcifs to implement SSO using with Kerberos (version 1.2.9 released in september 2006) (with Tomcat on Windows and Linux). 1.2.9 was released with a warning (QUOTE: "This package has been reported to work by several users however the code has not been examined carefully by jCIFS maintainers and therefore should be considered highly experimental"). Confusingly...I've just checked....the latest release (1.2.11) does not include the SPENGO classes. At any rate, using Kerberos, we are able to use IE to automagically get credentials from the KDC, and then use delegation to authenticate/connect to our SQL servers. The only issues we have had, have been with MS's null "authTime" in the Kerberos tickets, and a jdk bug where ticket times can be wrong because of timezones (a bug fixed in jdk 6 aparently). The former bug was easy to work around, but we have no solution for the latter yet (it's very infrequent, so not a show stopper).
