I found some discussion re: setting Sharepoint 2010 to use Kerberos. I got scared off when they started using expensive words like “infrastructure”.

There would then be the question of whether FF supports kerberos on non Windows platforms, which I’m guessing would be “nope”.

Hmm, more arguments in favor of Chrome . . .
