Hi Siba

There is one case not covered:

1. sun.security.krb5.principal not set
2. an existing principal set in jaas.conf

In your jaas.conf.principal, a non-existing 1USER principal is used. In 
fact, why not add both accounts into the KDC and then check if the login 
user is what you expected?

Historically, all krb5 tests that uses KDC.java is inside the auto 
sub-directory. Now that there are so many tests inside, I would still 
like creating sub-directories inside it instead of outside auto.

Also, do you intent to add more tests using KrbOption? The current usage 
of it looks unnecessary. I mean, why not simply

     public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
         runTest(true, "jaas.conf.principal",
                 "krb5.conf", "USER at TEST.REALM");
         runTest(false, "jaas.conf.principal",
                 "krb5.conf", null);
         runTest(true, "jaas.conf.noPrincipal",
                 "krb5.conf", "USER at TEST.REALM");
         runTest(false, "jaas.conf.noPrincipal",
                 "krb5.conf", null);
     }

KDC.java: Please make startKDC() public as it's designed to call from 
outside.

Thanks
Max
