Michael Osipov commented on CONNECTORS-1103:
--------------------------------------------

Nice you are citing my Sorceforge projects ;-) I plan add this too with an 
implicit {{GSSCredential}} but this should actually necessary because you can 
leverage a {{Subject}} insance with the private credentials and the {{doAs()}} 
to achieve the same. The internals of HttpClient would run in the scope of the 
explicit credential.

> Add Kerberos support for all connectors that currently use NTLM

>
> You can solve your local ticket store by using LoginContext and appropriate 
> keytabs. Obtain the GSSCredential and go. Every connection instance can act 
> independently. Regardless of the OS.
> If you cache the subject issued by the aforementioned LoginContext, you can 
> always say: GssCredential#getRemainingLifetime or invoke a fresh LoginContext 
> as you think fit.
> Unfortunately, HTTPClient does not support direct use of GSSCredential and 
> always assumes implicit credential. Fortunately, there are several ways to 
> solve that problem too.
