Hi,

I agree -- the real use case for us involves forwarding tokens too.

Best regards,

I, for one, am interested in a profile like this. The Kerberos Token Profile
seems fine for the authentication step, but one of our main use cases is the
forwarding of Kerberos tokens for subsequent use in the environment of jobs
and the like, and I don't think the Kerberos Token Profile covers this at
all.
