Die you follow http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/CASUM/SPNEGO for 
setting this up? Especially the property NTLMallowed and section "Set up 
Browser / Firefox"?

Does it work with Firefox? I'm asking because SPNEGO/Kerberos does not 
work anymore for me with Seamonkey. It used to work and it works with 
Firefox. Not sure which update caused this. :-/

You can easily observe this also with http://livehttpheaders.mozdev.org 
which is also helpful when using SSL (which is a MUST with CAS).

Hmm, strange. Should be the same in both cases.

Ciao, Michael.
