Sorry to bring back this topic.

I had the same problem when using
addprinc -policy service -randkey host/xxx.be

My solution for -randkey to work, was to set -minclasses 1 for policy
service.
It was at 3 at the beginning and 2 didn't work aswell.

Found the solution here: http://blogg.cefit.se/

Hope this help.
