I have been playing with the Sun GSS/Kerberos sample code in http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/security/jgss/tutorials/ClientServer.html
and noticed that the client in this scenario needs only a Kerberos ticket (for example, obtained from an initial Windows logon), whereas the server needs a secret key. This creates a key management problem for our servers, which I would like to avoid. Why is it that the server needs a key, when in principle, a ticket should be enough to prove one's identity? Is there a way to avoid the key management problem for servers?
