Hi Vinnie
As you know, krb5 can read KDC info from DNS and I want to write a
regression test on it. However, the test must be independent and it
should not access any server not inside the test suite.
Java uses those 2 lines to read the KDC info. Surely it would work if I
write my own DNS server and embed it into the test, but as you said,
that's too complicated. So I was thinking about how to trick it to
return something without querying a real server.
My current solution is to provide my own javax.naming.spi.NamingManager
and make sure it shadows the original one by setting the path to
-Xbootclasspath/p:. It is quite ugly and I feel shame to go this way.
Thanks
Max

If you're proposing developing a basic JNDI service provider then that would be
more effort.

Hi Vinnie
I want to write a regression test so that
Context ctx = NamingManager.getURLContext("dns", new Hashtable<>(0));
Attributes attrs =((DirContext)ctx).getAttributes(
"_kerberos._udp.ASDF.COM.", SRV_RR_ATTR);
can return some entries without querying a real external server.
Is this possible by registering a local name server provider or else?
Thanks
