I do not quite understand your setup (the domain name is the same as the 
KDC machine name? Which host kinit then connects to? ). The -n switch in 
sample-client is the fully-qualified name of the host where 
sample-server  is running (in your case this is the KDC machine, isn't 
it?).   The error youi got is  reported when one specifies only domain 
name not the host-name as -n option.
