Follow-up Comment #4, sr #119913 (project xrootd):
The authentication for xrdcp (as well as any other xrootd-related
application) relies on the client class to do the authentication (i.e.
XrdClient or XrdClientAdmin). The actual authentication is driven by the
appropriate security plug-in.
For Kerberos, there needs to be a working Kerberos server accessible by the
client as well as the server that needs to be in the server's Kerberos
domain. This is required by the Kerberos protocol not the particular
implementation.
As for GSI and Castor, I do not know.
