Re: Java GSS/Kerberos issue - Autheticating server

I can authenticate as that particular principal in the client portion of the
code that I have written using exactly the same case, etc.
I have a server and a client portion of code that pass GSS-wrapped kerberos
tokens through a SOAP connection and the server is unable to authenticate to
the KDC using any credentials (Same error) and the client can authenticate
using any credentials.
Both use the same code:
LoginContext("confName", new PasswordCallbackClass(....,....));
lc.login();
Thc lc.login() on the server portion is failing. The server is runnning on
my Windows XP devel box and is running as a Tomcat servlet. Any known issues
with this type of setup?
Thanks all the help!
