ok, I will add timers to corelate log events with wireshark output, all machines sync to AD NTP. According to this, situation is clear (if one can say so). If I acknowledge the pass prompt fast 3x in a row (that is 3 GET's get sent), I get all 3x(DEBUG: Got / Decode / AF) lines in the cache.log the very moment and an OK for last GET. In second test, with pause after 2 acks, on first 2 acks of pass prompt (each dispatches a GET request with valid kerb token) I get no reaction in log ... so I waited about 10 secs for 3rd ack, did it and got all 3x(DEBUG: Got / Decode / AF) lines at the same time according to log. Unlike the situation detailed below where I only got one (DEBUG: Got / Decode / AF). Point is that 3rd GET seems to trigger processing the auth momentarily, any less won't do. The time doesn't seem to matter. When same desktop client (I tried several just to make sure) is logged in with a valid domain username, none of this happens. After 1st 407 it goes through TGS-REQ/TGS-REP and sends GET with GSSAPI (doesn't even try NTLM) and receives OK. I don't know how to resolve this or what to troubleshoot further.
