No, this is currently not possible. Stephen, can you please describe your use<br>
case why you want it to be off? This would allow us to consider this as an<br>
enhancement for future.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div style>I certainly understand why the feature was added as many devices do not have the capability of acquiring a Kerberos ticket. If we want to restrict access to devices that *can* acquire a ticket, this would prevent credentials from being sent over the wire (even if over a secure link), and, thus, provide for increased security. If I'm correct about how this form works, it only requires credentials to be sent once and then it requests a ticket on the user's behalf. While this is better than sending them with each request, it still presents an opportunity where credentials can be intercepted, no?</div>
