Victory! :-)

Our Purge-DNS script removed the record because it looked "outdated".  
I added it again and everything is working now! Thanks for that hint,  
I totally looked into the wrong direction with principal names/ 
mapping/... etc.

... but also des-cbc-md5. So this was/still is not a problem in my  
constellation.

Thanks!
