Authentication and Single sign on with Kerberos and Active Directory (LDAP) on AEM

We are looking to provide authentication of AEM authors using the company's LDAP. Is there any way in AEM to use the Kerberos based single sign on ?

If you want to use Microsoft's version of Kerberos, I suggest you to use an IIS instance to do the authentication and use trusted-header SSO on AEM side. So the IIS adds the username as a header to the request and CQ is configured to trust this header and take it's value as username.

We are using Linux server, can we still use Kerberos to do authentication using headers.
