Cannot contact KDC

Hello, 

I'm setting up a Debian server with kerberos and I'm having the following 
error when I try to get a ticket: "Cannot contact any KDC for requested realm 
while getting initial credentials".

Here are the steps I've taken so far:
1. # apt-get install libcomerr2 libkrb53 krb5-user krb5-kdc krb5-admin-server 
krb5-config
2. Edit my /etc/krb5.conf and /etc/krb5kdc/kdc.conf (I'm attaching at the end)
3. #krb5_newrealm
4. Edit my /etc/krb5kdc/kadm5.acl
5. # kadmin.local -q "addprinc diego/admin"
6. # /etc/init.d/krb5-admin-server restart; /etc/init.d/krb5-kdc restart
7. kinit diego

Then I get the error message. When I use "# kinit -v diego" I get this error:
kinit(v5): No credentials cache found while validating credentials

Any help is more than welcome. Here are my configuration files:
