I searched http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/list and don't see any outstanding requests for Kerberos support.
In my own work I'd seen references to some Kerberos cipher suites, but they obviously can't be implemented on their own without other Kerberos infrastructure. Is there some specific java.* or javax.* API or server provider API you are specifically targeting? I'm somewhat familiar with Kerberos having ported it across more traditional OS's in my youth, but have little experience with it in a Java environment, and have not thought out the general issues that might be present when each app runs in an independent UID with regard to how ticket management etc might work. -bri On Tue, Aug 9, 2011 at 11:06 AM, Thomas Hardjono <[email protected]>wrote: > Thanks Brian, > > We are starting a new project at the MIT-KC to develop Kerberos > support for Dalvik (eg.
