For Kerberos testing, disable DNS lookups

sfrost · sfrost · commit ce5e23408568 · 2023-04-07T19:36:46.000-04:00
Similar to 8dff2f2, this disables DNS lookups by the Kerberos library to look up the KDC and the realm while the Kerberos tests are running. In some environments, these lookups can take a long time and end up timing out and causing tests to fail. Further, since this isn't really our domain, we shouldn't be sending out these DNS requests during our tests.
