Thanks for the info. Microsoft documentation is not so clear on
Negotiate protocol, even if they recommend to use it instead of use
explicitly NTLM or Kerberos .... :-(

Yes, I can confirm that Firefox 1.5 beta 2 accepts Negotiate
authentication requests.

Andrew: another question:

Samba 3.0.14a provided with Debian Sarge is enough to test Negotiate,
or I need to install 3.0.20a ?

I like to have a working baseline on Linux before to work on a native
Windows Negotiate Helper.
