--------------------------------------
Thank you, Emmanuel.
Seems the process is a little different from other projects, like Hadoop. It's
great for me work with ApacheDS codes coming up this patch. A pleasure.

> As discussed in the developers list, it’s good to provide credentials cache
> support for ApacheDS Kerberos. Currently this functionality isn’t available,
> as confirmed by Kiran. It’s needed to implement Kerberos client tools like
> kinit to be complete for the ApacheDS Kerberos solution in future. And also,
> in Kerberos automation testing systems utilizing the built-in KDC in
> ApacheDS, to allow test of user login via kinit or ticket cache, such
> facility is also needed to store TGT in a FCC compatible cache, and from the
> cache the TGT can be loaded by thirdparty tools and libraries. Ref.
> HADOOP-9893. This issue will define the API and provide implementation for
> credentials cache as client library. Such library can be utilized to
> implement kinit like tools in future.
