One other thing to watch is the syslog of the KDC to see what ticket is
issed to the client which will be used with the server. This might
indicate what principal is being used.
It might be that the krb5.conf [domain_realm] or DNS is assuming the
server is in a different realm.
(It apears you are changing the names of the hosts and realm to try
and be anonymous. This makes it harder to debug, as you may be hiding
a clue to the problem.)
