I don't have permission to edit that page. My login on that system is

What I would do is change
http://cxf.apache.org/docs/jaxrs-kerberos.html#JAXRSKerberos-Configuringtheserviceprincipalname
by adding a new third sentence:
When the "servicePrincipalName" is not specified, the target host from the
provided endpoint URL is used to construct one as-is. To perform
canonicalization of this hostname (e.g. if a CNAME record host.example.com
points to an A record host-x.example.com, then use "host-x.example.com" when
constructing the servicePrincipalName), the "useCanonicalHostname" property can
be set to "true".
