Not aware of a "includes all"-guide, but would start here:

- adding the HTTP service principal:
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html-single/Identity_Management_Guide/index.html#adding-service-entry-cmd
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/18/html/FreeIPA_Guide/managing-services.html#adding-service-entry
- when you host multiple kerberized sites on the server 
(access required a Red Hat subscription):

- apache side config:
http://modauthkerb.sourceforge.net/configure.html
- firefox client side config:
