Has anyone had luck using Kerberos tickets generated with kinit in Chromium for authenticating to websites?

The company I work for supports Kerberos authentication to internal websites, and I'm able to configure Firefox to use generated Kerberos tickets by configuring network.negotiate-auth.delegation-uris and network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris but I don't if/how I can do this in Chromium...

Authentication options of Chromium are described at http://dev.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/http-authentication

For Kerberos, you need the command line option --auth-server-whitelist=.example.com

In Ubuntu, you can add this command line option to the file /etc/chromium-browser/default

Create a chrome policy file like below. Please note that Chrome *Whitelist settings have recently changed to *Allowlist.

cat << HEREDOC | sudo tee /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/kerberos.json > /dev/null
{
    "AuthServerAllowlist": "*.yourdomain.com",
    "AuthNegotiateDelegateAllowlist": "*.yourdomain.com"
}
HEREDOC

(The fancy sudo tee stuff is just to acquire write permission.)
