* 8.4 to 9.1 Upgrade Kerberos Auth Stops Working "Wrong principal in request"

I have Kerberos Authentication working for PostgreSQL 8.4 on Debian 
Squeeze, against a Windows 2000 Server Domain.  I tried upgrading some 
test servers to Debian Wheezy which upgrades PostgreSQL to 9.1, but 
Kerberos authentication breaks with the "Wrong principal in request" error.

These servers ultimately use Apache2/mod-auth-kerb/php5-cgi to do SSO in 
a Windows web browser and that gets passed to PostgreSQL, but I have the 
issue with psql as well and that is where I normally start 
troubleshooting.  Mod-Auth-Kerb in Apache2 continues to authenticate and 
work after the upgrade, only PostgreSQL stops working.

Here is everything I've looked at and the results I get - I am baffled 
on why this stopped working with 9.1, my config is the same, hostnames, 
DNS, clocks, etc. look good and nothing changed there.  Below is from a 
fresh, clean install of Debian Wheezy/ PostgreSQL 9.1 on a new test VM 
and I still get the error.  If anyone sees something I am doing wrong or 
something I missed and should be looking into, your advice would be 
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Josh

Josh,

  That key type (des-cbc-md5) has looonngggg been deprecated and has
  been actively disabled and disallowed from use in modern Kerberos
  libraries.

  Please go get an AES256 key and install that instead.

  	Thanks,

		Stephen

Thanks - that was one of my fears - I just double checked and ktpass on 
Windows 2000 only gives me DES-CBC-CRC and DES-CBC-MD5 as crypto 
options, it won't accept AES256-SHA1.  I already did have 
allow_weak_crypto on and a Group Policy for Windows 7 clients which did 
get it to work & cannot migrate from Windows 2000 just yet...
