Did you mean using a smb:// URI in Konqueror?

It could be a bug in the Kerberos implementation or the code using it.
I remember reading about such a problem but I think it has been fixed already. 
Maybe it isn't in 3.4 yet, just in 3.5 (but as it is a fix it think it should 
be in 3.4 as well)

Could you check on bugs.kde.org if you find anything related and if not, maybe 
post all the information you have gathered into a new report?

Cheers,
Kevin
