If you are using MIT Kerberos (anything 1.10 or newer) on the LDAP server,
you can use the krb5.conf configuration entry "ignore_acceptor_hostname"
to allow the server to match on any valid hostname.  See details here:

https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/krb5-latest/doc/admin/conf_files/krb5_conf.html#libdefaults

Should do what you want.
