That's not how Kerberos works. What FreeRADIUS can do is obtain a TGT (ticket 
granting ticket) on behalf of the user using the supplied password. If the TGT 
request succeeds FreeRADIUS considers that a successful authentication. The 
problem is the TGT, which is *necessary* for single signon (software on behalf 
of the user supplies the TGT when necessary) is not available because it's not 
returned in the radius protocol. The TGT obtained by FreeRADIUS on behalf of the 
user is effectively thrown away and is not available for further use.
