Kerberos Authentication Not Enforced — YADE Falls Back to NTLM

Current Situation

• When using YADE with SMB protocol and selecting Kerberos authentication via <SMBAuthenticationMethodKerberos>, YADE does not enforce Kerberos.
• Instead, YADE falls back to NTLM authentication, even though NTLM is not configured or permitted on the target system.
• This behaviour causes authentication failures on systems where NTLM is disabled and Kerberos is required.

Desired Behaviour

• YADE should enforce the authentication method defined in the configuration.
• If Kerberos is selected, YADE should attempt Kerberos authentication only.
