Ah indeed: use of IP addresses or any kind of alias like CNAME or manual hosts 
entry without corresponding servicePrincipalName in the AD breaks Kerberos.  
Without further precautions It only works with the server's primary hostname 
("Computername").  With that one Domain Computers should work just as well as 
Authenticated Users, but the former nicely limits access to system services 
and keeps regular users off the distribution share.
