Spnego keytab test gives a java security exception

I cannot get the following program running:

import java.net.URL;

import net.sourceforge.spnego.SpnegoHttpURLConnection;

public class HelloKeytab {

    public static void main(final String[] args) throws Exception {
        System.setProperty("java.security.krb5.conf", "krb5.conf");
        System.setProperty("sun.security.krb5.debug", "true");
        System.setProperty("java.security.auth.login.config", "login.conf");

        SpnegoHttpURLConnection spnego = null;

        try {
            spnego = new SpnegoHttpURLConnection("spnego-client");
            spnego.connect(new URL("http://as1.test.local/hello_spnego.jsp"));

            System.out.println("HTTP Status Code: " 
                    + spnego.getResponseCode());

            System.out.println("HTTP Status Message: "
                    + spnego.getResponseMessage());

        } finally {
            if (null != spnego) {
                spnego.disconnect();
            }
        }
    }
}

I installed JDK7 and set the JAVA_HOME environment variable as an Administrator. I am working on a Windows XP machine as a regular domain user while compiling and running.

I have the spnego-r7.jar in the same directory as the HelloKeytab.java and I compiled with:

javac -cp .;spnego-r7.jar HelloKeytab.java

which succesfully creates the class.

When I run the program with:

java -cp .;spengo-r7.jar HelloKeytab

I get the following error:

The spnego-r7.jar can be found here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/spnego/files/

What is wrong that I am getting this error?

I had an error in the login.conf.

spnego-client {
    com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule required;
    storeKey=true
    useKeyTab=true
    keyTab="file:///C:/sys-spn.keytab"
    principal=sys-spn;
};

The semicolon after required should not be there!
