All characters that are in the ASN.1 GeneralString charset are ok. In
reality anything that is ASCII does't work.

What encryption types/salting was set in the principal ? What was the
client, what kdc where you running ?

I've tested with aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96, arcfour-hmac-md5, des3-cbc-sha1,
des-cbc-crc. Any clue how to reproduce this would be great.
