I know, and if you look carefully I also require you to put in the
server name to get the keytab right now.
These 2 are "bugs" I'll fix later on.
The principal name thing is easy, I will push a patch in a few hours but
implementing the whole discovery thing again in C was a lot of work that
was not really core to the functionality. So I decided to do it once the
core was in. It is a bit annoying right now but not a tragedy to be
required to put in the KDC server name.

Done as agreed via IRC.

Simo.
