Try:

truss -o /tmp/truss.out -u:: kinit

which will show all the functions called and their return values (well,
if they have a non-void return value).  This may help pin down why kinit
is failing.

Well, it really depends on your DNS configuration.  Does nslookup work
for the KDC hostname on the Solaris systems?  In general it should.  Use
of a IP address for the kdc usually indicates a distrust of the DNS
servers.
