Do you have the correct kerberos machine keytab installed?  You can
copy the keytab from the mainserver with:

     debian-lan key2machine workstationXX

This sometimes fails during installation or when a keytab has been
used before.  (Depending on your level of security you migth want to
create a new keytab).  With the command above, you can do it
manually.

Ragards,
