Let's Kerberos
cryptonector and I also specified a Kerberos-like protocol [1] based on Mozilla’s defunct BrowserID protocol. I demonstrated it as a drop-in replacement for Kerberos with Exchange, having built a Windows SSP and credential provider as well as a GSS-API implementation (the latter which is open source [3]).
Unfortunately after Mozilla cancelled Persona, this never went anywhere.

Let's Kerberos
The Swedes also started their own from-scratch implementation, known as Heimdal (https://github.com/heimdal/heimdal), which has a bunch of nifty things in it including a from-scratch PKIX/x.509 implementation and a from-scratch ASN.1 compiler and library.

Samba 4.9.5 / Windows 11 22H2 Kerberos Incompatibility - Cross posted from r/samba
Samba uses a embedded version of Heimdal and there is an open issue talking about this problem https://github.com/heimdal/heimdal/issues/1011. TLDR: Heimdal suffers from the 2038 date bug and Windows made a change in one of the requests where a datetime field now returns a date that goes beyond 2038.
