+### When I run Pycapa against a Kafka broker with Kerberos enabled, why do I 
get an error like "No such configuration property: 'sasl.kerberos.principal'"?
+
+This can be a confusing error message because `sasl.kerberos.principal` is 
indeed a valid property for librdkafka as defined 
[here](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka/blob/master/CONFIGURATION.md).  
This is most likely because Pycapa is running against a version of Librdkafka 
without SASL support enabled.  This might happen if you have accidentally 
installed multiple versions of Librdkafka and Pycapa is unexpectedly using the 
version without SASL support enabled.
+
+Bottom Line: Make sure that Pycapa is running against a version of Librdkafka 
with SASL support enabled.
