Hi.
When I get this exception I usually set
System.setProperty("java.security.krb5.conf", krbfilepath); in my client code.
Where krbfilepath is path to krb5.conf file.
Regards

Hi,
Thanks for responding back. But I get this error now
Failure to initialize security context [Caused by GSSException: Invalid name
provided (Mechanism level: Could not load configuration file
C:\Windows\krb5.ini (The system cannot find the file specified))]
My problem is very similar to this stackflow question
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21193453/how-to-access-secure-kerberized-hadoop-using-just-java-api
Basically I want to run the examples in this link
http://java.dzone.com/articles/handling-big-data-hbase-part-4 against my secure
cluster.
Regards,
Anand
