I was able to connect to my windows systems from linux box using domain credentials, when all of a sudden it stopped working. I have tried different accounts and different domains and getting the same error for every account —
""msg": "kerberos: authGSSClientInit() failed: (('Unspecified GSS
failure. Minor code may provide more information', 851968), (\"Can't
find client principal user@domain in cache collection\",
-1765328243))","
The machine is running ubuntu, running Kerberos 5 version 1.12, and I have rebooted it as well. Klist shows that a valid ticket is available. No changes have been made anywhere. Searched on internet and haven't found anything. How do I find out where the problem is?
These packages are installed:
pip (1.5.4)
pycrypto (2.6.1)
pykerberos (1.1.13) python-apt
(0.9.3.5ubuntu2) python-debian (0.1.21-nmu2ubuntu2) python-ntlm3
(1.0.2) pywinrm (0.2.0)

I had the same issue when I was using the pywinrm library on a linux machine. The solution was to have the domain as upper casing. Example: user@DOMAIN.COM.
Hope this helps.
