Oh, I remember reading such a thread, but didn't understood how it could
be related to the problem I had this morning... Now, it make sense.

Ok, it explain the 'why'. As running the integ test as root is not an
option, I guess that a profile is mandatory. May be checking that the
user is root at the beginning of the test could help, or at least that
he had enough priviledge to open a port on 88.
Hopefully, you will come with a correct solution sooner or later !
Thanks for the explanaition, Enrique, I was afraid that commenting this
test could weaken the server (integ test are good) buy now I see this
will be a temporary solution. Anyway, the JIRA will remain until we fix
it, which is why JIRA are good for ;)
