Java doesn't have accessible Kerberos support. It wraps Kerberos
in GSSAPI which requires the server to support GSSAPI instead of
plain Kerberos.
Looks like Kerberos is the only GSSAPI mechanism supported in Java.
OK by me, but that's not the point of the standard (or the SASL
standard).
So, two questions:
1) Is there an alternative JDBC client that's just a glue layer
instead of a complete re-implementation?
No, there aren't any Type 2 drivers around. Requiring native code
is a giant pain.

Requiring JAVA support for everything you can do with C is also a
pain, isn't it? (This incompatibility being an example.)
I take it you're not volunteering to help with my second request. ;-)
