kerberos authentication error with Windows 2003 SP1 AD

My operating system is Red Hat Linux AS 4, Kerberos 5, with
postgresql-7.4.14 that I compiled. I can authenticate using
ssh, su, console login, and also have gotten apache
mod_auth_kerb to work with AD - but I am missing something
with postgresql. When I try:

[pkoppe01@ipswich ~]$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -d test -h ipswich
psql: Kerberos 5 authentication failed

For the configure step, I did (needed the include statement
to prevent an error about comm_err.h):

[koppel@ipswich postgresql-7.4.14]$ ./configure --with-java
--with-krb5 --with-includes=/usr/include/et

The make proceeded normally.

My pg_hba.conf looks like this (with pkoppe01 defined in
Active Directory but not defined in postgres using "createuser")

local all all trust
host test pkoppe01 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 krb5

Also have "tcpip_socket = true" and the postgres keytab
referenced in postgresql.conf and the keytab file itself
owned by postgres.

When I try the psql command above (as pkoppe01) I do get the
service ticket for postgres:

[pkoppe01@ipswich ~]$ klist
Ticket cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_501_LCzZ1P Default principal:
pkoppe01@PRIVATE.LAN

Valid starting Expires Service principal
11/13/06 11:17:25 11/13/06 21:17:28
krbtgt/PRIVATE.LAN@PRIVATE.LAN renew until 11/14/06 11:17:25
11/13/06 11:19:02 11/13/06 21:17:28
postgres/ipswich.private.lan@PRIVATE.LAN
renew until 11/14/06 11:17:25

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Please feel free to email me directly as I just joined the
list and don't know my way around yet.

The server log from postgresql should give some more information.

You need to createuser with the AD username - this allows that user to
connect to PostgreSQL and to own and have various permissions in
PostgreSQL but uses the kerberos password authentication instead of
internal password storage.
