credential verification failed: KDC has no support for encryption type

[Ralf Hildebrandt]

Basically this is http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=669127 but on Ubuntu.
I'm trying to authenticate against Active Directory, and starting with version 1.10+dfsg~beta1-2ubuntu0.3 of the kerberos packages I'm getting these errors:

Reassigning to krb5, as:

Feb 8 15:38:09 vpn-gw-ausfall openvpn[9031]: pam_krb5(openvpn-krb5:auth): (user hildeb) credential verification failed: KDC has no support for encryption type

is an error message from the underlying Kerberos library that libpam-krb5 can't do anything about. libpam-krb5 itself doesn't know (or care) anything about enctypes.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
