Kai Zheng updated SLIDER-1058:
------------------------------
    Description: Per discussions in SLIDER-1035: this would enhance Kdiag tool 
allowing it to dump keytab file out so user may aware its content about 
principals, key types, key versions and so on. This makes sense because even a 
keytab can be used to authenticate successfully, but may be the wrong one. For 
example, a service may use the wrong keytab to login and starts up 
successfully, but when receives user's request, it maybe can't authenticate the 
user even when the request is valid due to the mismatch key contained in the 
keytab file.  (was: This would enhance Kdiag tool allowing it to dump keytab
