Hi Scott
On Mac since Lion, sun.security.krb5.Config tries to locate the config
info in this order:
1. java.security.krb5.conf system property
2. ${jre}/lib/security/krb5.conf
3. SCDynamicStoreConfig
The main difference from other platforms is that it will not try config
files, say, /Library/Preferences/edu.mit.Kerberos or /etc/krb5.conf.
On the other hand, even /usr/bin/kinit comes with Lion reads the config
file (if there is no SCDynamicStoreConfig setting).
Is there a special reason for the current Java behavior? I do notice
that the Apple 6u33 already does this.
Thanks
Max
