The enc-part of the ticket only matters to the service that it will be 
presented to (in this case, the MIT kdc). The MIT kdc is acting correctly. 
the enc-part of the AS-REP itself is des-cbc-md5

This is probably because the krbtgt/A.A@X.X entry in the X.X realm includes 
a key with the 3des enctype. You need to remove that key. I don't know how 
to do that for an MIT kdc.

The client's enctype preference *only* affects the following:
- the enctype of any enc-part that the client needs to decrypt (which does 
not include any enc part embedded in a ticket)
- the enctype of the session key.

The way that the kdc identifies what enctypes the server supports is based 
entirely on what keys the server's principal has in the kdc's datbase.
