-----------------------------------

Hi [~hgadre],

Sounds great you're interested! To work on this, some basic background would be 
helpful. Hadoop {{MiniKdc}} now mainly consists of {{SimpleKdcServer}} from 
Kerby and in the SimpleKdcServer class you can access a handle {{KrbClient}}. 
Using KrbClient you can do all kinds of supported logins and obtain a tgt; you 
can also store the tgt in a ticket cache file; with the ticket cache then you 
can do a Jaas login. Please go thru the stack and see if it helps. Note in 
Kerby codebase there is a nice unit test named {{TicketCacheLoginTest}} where 
all things link together. We could port the test to Hadoop based on Hadoop 
MiniKdc.

> As discussed in HADOOP-9881, it would be good to support ticket cache 
> generation utilizing MiniKdc, which can be used to test some Kerberos cases 
> for UGI regarding user login via kinit or ticket cache. Currently it's not 
> supported and this issue is to implement it.
