Welcome Josh.

Please refer to the start of the thread. The discussion is on whether biometrics can be used in the pre-authentication process in Kerberos, essentially to support the identification of the user / client to the KDC prior to being getting a TGT.  Whilst there is no specific use-case/problem at hand, the challenges are deciding how best to use biometrics with Kerberos.

Sorry, I've come to this thread late and trying to catch up; did you
have some use-case/problem in mind that you need to solve?
