(In reply to Anderson Soares Ferreira from comment #6)

This is normal now. pam_krb5 was vulnerable to CVE-2023-3326. To avoid a rogue
client spoofing a legitimate client one create a principal for the client and
place its keytab on the client. The server knows the client is legitimate When
the client presents its key from the keytab to the KDC. The kdc compares the
key presented by the client from its keytab with the principal in the KDC
database.

Works as designed.
