 Yes exactly. "tgtTicket" is stored as a variable in the
TokenAuthLoginModule so we may not need the credential cache at all. If you
agree I will fix this.

No, I want to find a way to avoid having an armor key at all. If the
purpose of the armor key is to encrypt the communication with the KDC, then
if the JWT token is encrypted this requirement is not necessary. But
perhaps it's not possible to skip this step?

OK I have created a JIRA for this.

Right, but I am doing this locally. The problem is on the client side that
"tkt.getTicket().getEncPart()" is null. How can I see what the
authorization data of the ticket is on the client side, so that I can test
that it was inserted correctly?
