Yes, for example the following OIDs are included in a DCE RPC SPNEGO
authentication:

  24 06    9:           OBJECT IDENTIFIER '1 2 840 48018 1 2 2'
  35 06    9:           OBJECT IDENTIFIER '1 2 840 113554 1 2 2'
  46 06   10:           OBJECT IDENTIFIER '1 2 840 113554 1 2 2 3'
  58 06   10:           OBJECT IDENTIFIER '1 3 6 1 4 1 311 2 2 10'

The first is Microsoft's bodged Kerberos OID, which appears to be used
in the SPNEGO negotiation only. The next is the real Kerberos OID. Not
sure about the one afther that. The final one is NTLMSSP.
