Migrate .cae file with .ws to Client Solutions .hod

When using the Access client solutions plug in to migrate .ws files to .hod, if the .ws file is configured to use Kerberos the kerberos settings are not copied as the .cae file is not migrated.


Use Case:

Can this be considered for future release as it means creating an image that contains the target system definition with kerberos settings before packaging, this makes the packaging and automation of distribution to include migration of all settings in a .ws file a more difficult process.
