Hi all,

I have an update to this issue. It looks like the issue grew out of some 
particular encryption types, plus their salts, on the KDC that are 
handled differently in Java as of update 25. The workaround is to remove 
the offending encryption types that Java isn't handling correctly, and 
then force an update of the principal.

The Oracle folks tell me it will be fixed in 6u28, which should be 
released in October.

Thanks,
