not really. mod_auth_kerb falls back to basic authentication and asks the 
user for his AD u/p combo and requests a tgt on behalf of the user.
if this is enough you are all set. if you want to use mod_auth_kerb AND 
mod_auth_ldap, you can use (from [1]):
----------
KrbAuthoritative on | off
	
(set to on by default)

If set to off this directive allow authentication controls to be pass on 
to another modules. Use only if you really know what you are doing.
