Title : Generic Security Service API Version 2: Java Bindings Update

Abstract:
The Generic Security Services Application Program Interface (GSS-API)
offers application programmers uniform access to security services
atop a variety of underlying cryptographic mechanisms. This document
updates the Java bindings for the GSS-API that are specified in
"Generic Security Service API Version 2 : Java Bindings Update" (RFC
5653). This document obsoletes RFC 5653 by adding a new output token
field to the GSSException class so that when the initSecContext or
acceptSecContext methods of the GSSContext class fails it has a
chance to emit an error token which can be sent to the peer for
debugging or informational purpose. The stream-based GSSContext
methods are also removed in this version.
The GSS-API is described at a language-independent conceptual level
in "Generic Security Service Application Program Interface Version 2,
Update 1" (RFC 2743). The GSS-API allows a caller application to
authenticate a principal identity, to delegate rights to a peer, and
to apply security services such as confidentiality and integrity on a
per-message basis. Examples of security mechanisms defined for GSS-
API are "The Simple Public-Key GSS-API Mechanism" (RFC 2025) and "The
Kerberos Version 5 Generic Security Service Application Program
Interface (GSS-API) Mechanism: Version 2" (RFC 4121).
