Yep, Kerberos. But there might have been others, I don’t know. (using books here because this happened before I was involved in the free software community)
No, Kerberos is a different protocol related to authentication. The extensions were added to Active Directory which was their LDAP implementation (directory service).
Might be. As I said, Kerberos didn’t killed Samba because Samba dev realised the problem (there was still use of Kerberos/LDAP together) but I’ve never user Kerberos myself and hated LDAP deeply so my brain won’t remember the details of those stories ;-)
It was the extensions to LDAP which were in Active Directory which stifled Samba, right?
