Hello,

Has anybody tried it? Does anyone know how the protocol works?

There are pages in the web that hint that this is possible, but nobody
seems to have done it yet. For example:

http://www.datadirect.com/developer/jdbc/topics/winauth/index.ssp

Unfortunately it seems that tcpdumping the connection from query
analyzer to sql server is not very useful because it uses NTLM
authentication.
