Usually the best way to debug auth problems with ssh is to
run /path/to/sshd -d -p XXXX on the server and ssh -p XXXX on the
client, for some alternate port number XXXX.  The client doesn't usually
know much about what went wrong and displays even less.

If your server's Kerberos library is new enough (and is MIT krb5),
setting KRB5_TRACE=/some/filename can provided a little more information
on top of the debugging output.  That can also work on the client, but
is unlikely to be as useful there.
