Thanks for confirming that the changes in 2057 have allowed you to get
Kerberos authentication with Windows systems over RDP to work.

Regarding Kerberos pass-through authentication, this is not yet planned for
any version of Guacamole - it should be doable, but will require an
authentication extension to be implemented for Guacamole Client that
performs Kerberos authentication on the client-side, and then is able to
share the required information with guacd to pass the Kerberos tickets on.
I would not expect to see this in any 1.6.x version.
