Empty the cabinets. 
Use the soft brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner and
carefully vacuum each cabinet inside and out. It may sound
strange, but this will take away loose dust and cobwebs,
in turn you'll have less streaking and an easier job. 
In a clean bucket, mix together a cup of white vinegar,
two cups of ammonia, a half a cup of baking soda, and two
gallons of warm water. (If the cabinets are really grimy,
you may want to try some t-s-p or trisodium phosphate,
which is a heavy duty cleaner that you can pick up at home
improvement centers, instead). 
Pull on your rubber gloves, open the cabinet doors, and
with very little on your sponge scrub from the bottom up
which will prevent streaking. Make sure that you get all
of the surfaces of the cabinets including the framework,
the inside and outside of the doors and all inside
surfaces.
