Other clients--MacOS's SMB file system, the Linux CIFS VFS, and smbclient--
all fail with an error along the lines of:

spnego_gen_negTokenTarg failed: KDC reply did not match expectations
As far as I've understood, CIFS VFS doesn't have support for Kerberos at
all yet. Are you sure you're not confusing it with the older SMBFS

Kerberos support in mount.cifs is an easy assumption to make, given that the sec=krb5 option is documented in the man page. But smbclient does function as it should with kerberos. First thing to check is whether you have a valid ticket; after having run kinit, what does klist say?

When in fear and when in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout.
