kvno is requesting a service ticket. But user accounts in AD don't
normally have a servicePrincipalName attribute.

kvno should work for actual service principals like:

     kvno host/livad.liv.ac.uk

Why do you need to use kvno with a user account?

If you need to know the kvno for the user, you can use ldap or  ADSI Edit
and search for the user and read the msDS-KeyVersionNumber attribute.

You might be able to add a servicePrincipalName to the user account if
you really need to get a service ticket for the user.
