Hi, I think that you misunderstood what Andrew was trying to tell you, my
/etc/krb5.conf on a linux client is this:

[logging]
    default = FILE:/var/log/krb5libs.log

[libdefaults]
    default_realm = MYDOMAIN.LAN
    dns_lookup_realm = true
    dns_lookup_kdc = true
    ticket_lifetime = 24h
    renew_lifetime = 7d
    rdns = false
    forwardable = true

[realms]

[domain_realm]

Note that NO particular server is referenced, yet it works, the client must
find the server itself via dns, try it, it just might cure your problems.
