<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;mso-ligatures:standard;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">As you know, companies slowly starting moving away from Kerberos Infrastructure (e.g. MS AD) and relying on MS Azure AD or any other IdP for their authentication
needs. The new companies doesn’t have any Kerberos infrastructure like MS AD at all. And, there are still thick client applications using GSS-API/Kerberos for the authentication and so was thinking on supporting for GSS-API/SAML for these client applications
and hence was asking about any known implementation. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">> Are there any known implementations of these?
<br>
<br>
There was an implementation of the draft, but I would imagine it's long dead at this point. The Shibboleth IdP contains some vestigial support for the server end of it. The drafts were never, and likely never will be, advanced, not much else I can say about
it.<br>
