"Keytab contains no suitable keys" error message, usually indicates that either the keytab had no keys in it the mentioned Principal with a supported encryption type. We can find that out by running the following command and matching the encryption+principal.

klist  –kte  /PATH/TO/keytab

. - Also couple of things we need to double check like the JCE unlimited policy is installed.

- Realm name is all in UpperCase.

.

If nothing works then at last we might have to regenerate the keytabs.

Output is too wierd:

USage: Klist.exe [-1h <LogonId.HighPart>] ....and something.

Please suggest

For Windows the Klist command syntax is slightly different:
