I am a big fan of dns_lookup_realm = true
in /etc/krb5.conf. Of course, our AD administrators maintain good SRV records for the various AD controllers -- so there's that. also they maintain a load-balanced pool per location for those apps that are not site-aware. Worst case, I could set my kdc = that. That LB pool will always been right, as they slip in and out AD controllers.
