Kerberos SPNEGO Authentication failure - Invalid argument (400) - Cannot find key of appropriate type to decrypt AP REP - RC4 with HMAC

dwj Nov 26, 2014 3:47 PM

We are using Kerberos to authenticate from JBoss7 on RH Linux --> Kerberos --> Windows AD and have been unable to successfully finalize the security around our application. I have exhausted my troubleshooting and would greatly appreciate any assistance you can share. I went to the extent of patching the jdk with Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files 7. Here is the Error I am getting after attempting to access my application in a browser:
