I'm installing a bunch of web apps for the office, and one of the wants would be Kerberos-managed SSO.

Now, I have found some information on the matter, and I wondered, what browsers integrate Kerberos SSO?

Of course I could just use the underlying web app to authenticate in case of lack of Kerberos capability, which is exactly the plan, but I'd like to know which browsers would work for that, so I can plan ahead and decide if it's even worth it to do that, which I believe it would considering that one of the web apps I'm implementing will be an ERP.
