mac os x ticket cache

[Ranga Samudrala]

Well,

When I set this environment variable and invoke ssh, it does not  
recognize the environment variable, instead, it prompts for password.

If set the environment variable and run the kinit command, I see the  
error:

"kinit: Unable to make 'Initial default ccache' the new system  
default cache"


So, I started using SUN's Java class  
sun.security.krb5.internal.tools.Kinit

When I cache the ticket obtained using this Java class on to a file  
system and if I execute the command

  klist -c <cache file on the filesystem>

  it does not recognize any tickets in that cache file.

Has this got something to do with the use of Java class  
sun.security.krb5.internal.tools.Kinit, whose implementation is may  
be lacking functionality provided by the kinit executable?
