It works now, the CNAME caused the problem. I changed the CNAME to:
kerberos        CNAME   fbsd

the fbsd is the one pointing to the kerberos server.

Now I have another question with the expiry date of the ticket.
I tried to create ticket for user with unlimited period, but klist shown 
  that it is a 1 day ticket only:

kadmin> add samwun
Max ticket life [1 day]:unlimited
Max renewable life [1 week]:unlimited
Principal expiration time [never]:
Password expiration time [never]:
Attributes []:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s Password:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [11:13am] [~]# klist
Credentials cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_0
         Principal: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

   Issued           Expires          Principal
May 28 11:13:15  May 28 21:13:15  krbtgt/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [11:13am] [~]#

I can I make the Expiry date as unlimited? If it doesn't make sense to 
kerberos, what should be a good policy for assigning the valid  period 
for each user?

Thanks
Sam.
