Authenticating a server using kerberos

Question

I thought it could be a good idea to use kerberos on Windows 2003 to authenticate a Java server application against active directory. That way, we will not have to put a password in a file. But this does not work.

[2012-09-20 17:42:19,301] ERROR Cannot authenticate server via JAAS
javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: No LoginModules configured for KerberosLogin
    at javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext.init(LoginContext.java:273)
    at javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext.<init>(LoginContext.java:349)

If I run the exact same code and configuration on Windows XP, then authentication works. In both cases I am using Java 7 u07.

事实证明，我通过JDK的kinit命令获取的TGT已过期。
