OK. So, to get it to use a different encryption type, I'm thinking I'd have to 
specify that when I create the keytab (and then uncheck the Use DES option on 
the account setup in Windows). So, when I created my keytab, I used a command 
like this on the AD side: 

ktpass -princ POSTGRES/[email protected] -crypto DES-CBC-MD5 -mapuser 
host -pass mypasswd -out postgres.keytab 

So for the -crypto option, what would be your recommendation for what I should 
use and would this require changes on the DB server side? 

Thanks again.

Great, glad to hear you got it working. Just to reiterate- you really 
should be looking at using a 2008 AD with AES encryption types instead 
of DES. DES is depreciated and no longer secure given today's 
computers. 

Thanks,
