Hello Muhammad Arul,

I was able to do a SSH via Kerberos but without using a Kerberos Server, all we neeed is SSH -> PAM -> Kerberos and reach port 88 on the Domain Controller .Take a look here.http://felipeferreira.net/2019/08/21/configure-kerberos-for-ssh-activedirectory/

I was able to perform all the steps.  The last step however ( ssh krb5... )  is still asking me for a password..? Any pointers here?
