Your account on the other box is likely "user" not "user at REALM".
What's in /etc/passwd?  If it is "user:..." then the account's name
is "user" and you must use "-l user".  It's prompting you for a
password on the other host because your login has failed because
the username doesn't match an existing user on the system.
