AMT Commander Ceased to Correctly Function

About 3 weeks ago, AMT Commander began to fail to log into remote machines using Kerberos. Previously, it had worked fine for everyone (5 engineers) but now it does not.

We can log into these same machines web consoles via a browser, using both Kerberos and Digest credentials. PowerShell scripts work perfectely using the same credentials, and SCCM works as well.

We have started developing against MPS, which means that a working version of Commader is quite useful.

Attached is the commander's log containing the typical failed connection. Connection was from a W7/64 machine to an AMT v6.0.0 machine.

Here is a log from annother machine (W2003ES/32) attempting to connect to the same AMT v6 machine. Two attempts resulting in two different errors, this is what we see for everything:
