Description
RFC 4178 defines new rules for creating the mechListMic token inside SPNEGO tokens. This field is now used in Windows Server 2008. In order to better co-operate with Windows 2008, we need to support this field.
Comments
EVALUATION It's good to support standard RFC, but also need to make sure interop with other impl. Currently not urgent because Kerbeors is still the only mech supported by SPNEGO, so the new case described in the RFC is not necessarily implemented.
