Thanks for these leads - I will look into them and get
back to you if I have any questions.

How do you feel about a Java wrapper around Simon
Josefesson's GNU GSS library - I am currently looking
at this and it seems familiar enough to me.  Providing
this would not be hard for me.

I shall look at the Kerberos stuff too - have userland
experience of this but not at the implementation
level.

Regards,
Alan.
