https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-cat-user2user-02 defines the Kerberos user2user authentication mechanism. This is often preferred when authenticating to end-user servers, because it can establish a connection using the short lived TGT issued to the server, rather than its long lived credentials. This adds the necessary constants, KRB messages, GSS-API and SPNEGO token unmarshaling and marshaling logic. This has been successfully tested against Windows AD servers.
