I'm pretty sure that this can't be the reason. Setting up a 64 bit 
combined server in a virtual box environment always generates the right 
values in /opt/ltsp/i386/krb5.conf.

The script that generates krb5.conf relies upon a working DNS setup on 
tjener. Under default conditions it works o.k. So I guess the reported 
problem is related to special local conditions concerning the network 
setup.
