Hi Mark,

Can you get a bug logged and let me know the JI ?
Sure. Is the existing bug not enough?

Hi Rory,

A user has reported a problem [1] with Tomcat's kerberos (we call it
Windows authentication) when using SRV DNS records to locate the LDAP
server.

The root cause appears to be a JRE bug. [2]

The fix for that bug in Java 8 doesn't work for Tomcat. Is there any
chance the fix could be revisited and the proposal in the bug (remove
the trailing dot from the host name obtained from the DNS SRV record in
com.sun.jndi.ldap.ServiceLocator) be adopted?

The main problem for us is that the work around is awfully invasive. It
requires a fairly deep dive into the JRE code to fix.

Note: testing with Java 9 (first release) or Java 10 ea 38 shows
everything works as expected in those versions.

Thanks,

Mark
