Some SMB servers support Kerberos but pysmb does not support it.

For your question, it is possible to use an existing Kerberos ticket to request resources from a SMB server.

Is there anything I need to configure, just leaving out password and user did not work for me.

It is not that simple. Both server and client needs to have support for Kerberos.
The flow looks something like the attached diagram.

You should refer to the relevant documentation for your server/client on how to achieve it.
