Alex,
It was indeed the placement of " http_access allow kerb-auth". I've moved it down to just above the deny all rule, but after all the ACL's. After this it was working as expected.
Thank you,
Josh

If you want http_access rule X to be checked before http_access rule Y, you have to list X above Y in squid.conf: Squid checks all http_access directives one by one, top to bottom. At the first match, Squid applies the matched action ("allow" or "deny") and does not check any other/lower http_access rules.

FWIW, these access controls are not Linux-specific. I cannot tell you what http_access order is correct because I do not know what "We want authenticated users to access but we want to catch them first" means to you in terms of actual access rules. There are many ways to interpret that phrase...
In general, rules that do not depend on whether a user is authenticated should go above the rules that do depend (or require) authentication.
This principle avoids needless authentication of potentially malicious requests. FWIW, squid.conf.default has http_access order template that work for most use cases; you may want to start with that template rather than starting from scratch.
For example, if an "allow authless_dst" rule is meant to apply to both already-authenticated and not-yet-authenticated requests, then it probably should go above the "allow kerb-auth" rule (which triggers authentication), but there are many other ways these two rules may interact. I cannot tell which order matches your access policies/desires.
HTH,
Alex.
