Hello Aleks, Daniel,

Thank you for your comments.
I don’t like that the code is split into several modules too. The reason of 
doing it is I can not get TLS server certificate from the JGSS/Kerberos code. 
The only place Where I can fetch it is LdapClient.
If I understand your idea correctly, I can extract TLS server certificate in 
the LdapClient and put it into internal environment property as byte array 
without mention about Channel Binding. It will be done for every LDAPS 
connection.
In case of “com.sun.security.sasl.channelbinding=tls-server-end-point” property 
specified, GssKrb5Client extracts certificate from the internal environment 
property and use it to create TLS Channel Binding. In this case almost all 
Channel Binding code could be moved to GssKrb5Client. LdapClient still changed 
but not mention about Channel Binding. Changes in the LdapCtx could be omitted.

Regards
Alexey
