Asp.net and Kerberos Authentication

Im trying to do a Asp.net MVC , using Kerberos authentication. So far i haven't found a good example of how to implement this.

How do i implement something like a user getting access to a API server(where i would get the info to display on the page, such as list of users, lists of files etc) with Kerberos on ASP.net

Many of the websites i see have retired content or are outdate, like this one https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff649207.aspx

Also does Kerberos uses the windows account credentials or can it be any other?

For now i just have a ASP.net MVC default template created with visual studio 2013, (when creating the project i tick the use windows authentication) when i run the page, i get a Hello, domain\user! ).

Sorry if it seems a silly question but i don´t know where to start.

The Kerberos stuff isn't configured via MVC, it is handled on IIS. From IIS (Authentication), make sure "Windows Authentication" is enabled (anonymous is disabled) and (select "Windows Authentication", click "Providers" (right)) "Negotiate", means [Try Kerberos and if that doesn't work, fall-back-to NTLM].

Here is another S/O answer that talks about configuring your web.config to set up authentication. https://stackoverflow.com/a/4336423/283895

If you need help setting up Kerberos, or some code examples for getting the authenticated user info, etc. Microsoft has some good docs on this page (Steps 1-3). https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms998355.aspx
