Failed to verify krb5 credentials: Server not found in Kerberos database
I was getting “Failed to verify krb5 credentials: Server not found in Kerberos database” errors when trying to use Kerberos authentication in Apache2. The problem was in my /etc/hosts file. I needed to change this:

To this:
10.183.97.44 charity.progclub.org charity 67.207.128.184 charity.progclub.org charity-public
