Hi,

We've several of our webservers behind a load-balancer (as
common ;-) )
Kerberos authentication (mod_auth_kerb) on an individual host works as
a SPN and computer account is created
in Active Directory (using msktutil)

But as the URL used on load balancer is different, authentication
doesn't work, which is normal.
(it works, but falls back to a username/pw instead of using the
kerberos ticket from AD)

Any idea whats the common solution to solve this?

I assume you are using HTTP with SPNEGO protocol. For this to work in
load balancing environment you have to set your configure your SPN to
the URL of the load balancer not the web server.
