Hi List,

My goal in sending this email is to get some direction on where to start
looking to solve my problem.  Thank you all in advance for reading through
this and providing any guidance!

I'm working on moving to new servers, upgrading from CentOS 6.7 to CentOS
7.5.  In this move, we are also upgrading from Apache/2.2.15 to Apache/
2.4.33.  Our servers are all sitting behind a load balancer end point.

====System specifics====
CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 (Core)
Server version: Apache/2.4.33 (Unix)
Server built:   Jul  3 2018 11:33:42

On all of our CentOS 6.7 machines, kerberos works.  On all of our 7.5
machines, it fails.

I am looking, at this point, for direction on where to start looking.
Here is some relevant information:
