In fact it is OAuth2 that is used now and recently there was a new release

So definitely it is doable under linux, but it is not clear how much effort
it would be for TDE.
AFAIK it works via tokens that are feed back to the authorization approval
to the calling application.
It is not only M$ using this. Have a look here: https://oauth.net/2/
Pay attention to "authorization" and not "authentication".
"OAuth 2.0 is the industry-standard protocol for authorization"
I bet M$ did their own implementation, where they do not reveal all the
details, hence the problems.
IMO no. OAuth
is broken beyond repair, nobody (besides M$) uses it.
Uhhh, I believe Gmail is using it. And, from many usenet posts,
it ain't going well there, either -- at least not for *nix users.
