Yes, but, you know which principals the user has, yes?

So a new error, say KRB5_NO_XREALM_PATH, would suffice for you to
detect which credentials to use for which target services' realms. After
all, you complained that the server not found error is mostly useless -
would not KRB5_NO_XREALM_PATH be sufficiently useful?

Cheers,

Nico
