+ The AD provider looks for a different principal than the
+ LDAP provider by default, because in an Active Directory
+ environment the principals are divided into two groups
+ - User Principals and Service Principals. Only User
+ Principal can be used to obtain a TGT and by default,

+ its sAMAccountName and the AD realm. The well-known
+ host/hostname@REALM principal is a Service Principal
+ and thus cannot be used to get a TGT with.
