ummm, no - Kerberos does much more.  It is designed to secure a network via
authentication and to some degree authorization (if apps support it).  The
best semi-technical discussion I have seen is at:
http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/www/dialogue.html#personae

another link is :

I am currently doing this to my home network (as MS 2000 depends on it/uses
it and you can get Windows 98 clients for Kerberos).
