Java Kerberos authentication seems to work, still gets rejected

Michael Böckling picture Michael Böckling · Jul 5, 2011 · Viewed 13.1k times · Source

I've got a Java client app and a Java server app, and I'm trying to authenticate to the server via Kerberos. The client basically uses http-components and SPNEGO to make a HTTP GET call, but I always get 401 Unauthorized as a result.

I can not spot the error in the Kerberos login sequence below, maybe you guys can:

alse ticketCache is null isInitiator true KeyTab is null refreshKrb5Config is fa

Your Kerberos configuration might be completely fine. The 401 messsage means that the authentication itself probably went fine. However, i suspect the webapp only allows users if they are assigned a Role. The SPNego mechanism does not assign such role out-of-the-box. You still need to configure a Realm that performs the mapping.
