Windows machines joined to an Active Directory domain will use Kerberos
first.  If that does not work, it will then attempt using ntlm/lanman,
etc.  It may work well for you, but Solaris/Linux is made for kerberos
integration.  Ideally, you will want your Solaris domain member will
want all authentication tools available to it for maximum flexibility.

Take a look at the following:
