Hi All This is a request to backport several jdk8 fixes on the Kerberos 5 TcpTimeout.java into jdk7u.
7176574: sun/security/krb5/auto/TcpTimeout.java failed with solaris-i586 http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/cea72c2bf071 7162687: enhance KDC server availability detection http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/a2fc04c2dfc8 7122169: TcpTimeout fail for various reasons http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/11698dedbe79 The jdk8 fixes include code changes to other files and are not suitable to be backported all. Here I only intend to backport changes for sun/security/krb5/auto/TcpTimeout.java and merge all of them as a backport of the last bug 7176574. The changes are exactly the same as in jdk8. The fix is test only. Thanks Weijun
