I have to apologize to everyone here and thank you and Sam for your
feedback: the tone of my original message was an edge to sharp. I should
have had my frustration under control that my asking a lowly question
gets no reply on a mailing list with evidently a kiloton of critically
condensed knowledge in the subject matter. Of course nobody owes me
nothing here - sorry.

The question was in fact not specific to Postgresql. It was pretty much
a generic "I can't get my windows client to authenticate via
SSPI/AD/Kerberos". It was just that it was psql that showed the symptoms
and that I as a newbie in the subject matter was caught up in that
oekosystem. However the problem is/was a generic client ->
SSPI/AD/Kerberos one.
Anyway, thanks a lot for pointing out to me what I should do better next
time!!!
Greetings and thanks to all!
