WinRM - the specified privileges were rejected by the server

Question

I cannot get a WinRM session in a python script.

Environment

ad-dns.test.com    - Windows 2012 AD and DNS Server
box88.test.com     - CentOS 7.2 : Kerberos, Python (Not joined to domain)
box62.test.com     - Windows 2012 R2 Standard (Joined to domain)
box63.test.com     - Windows 10 (Joined to domain)

---

Configuration

I enabled WinRM on Windows 10 and 2012 servers through the ConfigureRemotingForAnsible.ps1 PowerShell script. These are WinRM configurations.

PS C:\Windows\system32> winrm get winrm/config

Problem

So far, everything looks smooth. The problem occurs when I try to use this kerberos ticket to authenticate Windows servers using the script below.

#!/usr/bin/env python

import winrm

s = winrm.Session('box63.test.com', auth=('[e-mail]', 'IamUsingKerbTicket'), transport='kerberos')
r = s.run_cmd('ipconfig', ['/all'])
print r.status_code
print r.std_out
print r.std_err


# ./winrm_ipconfig.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./winrm_ipconfig.py", line 6, in <module>
    r = s.run_cmd('ipconfig', ['/all'])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/winrm/__init__.py", line 37, in run_cmd
    shell_id = self.protocol.open_shell()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/winrm/protocol.py", line 132, in open_shell
    res = self.send_message(xmltodict.unparse(req))
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/winrm/protocol.py", line 207, in send_message
    return self.transport.send_message(message)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/winrm/transport.py", line 179, in send_message
    raise InvalidCredentialsError("the specified credentials were rejected by the server")
winrm.exceptions.InvalidCredentialsError: the specified credentials were rejected by the server
#

Not sure why I see this error while Event Logson a Windows server shows success. Apparently, I see three Logonand Logoffoccurring at the same time.

Not sure what I'm missing here. The firewall is stopped / disabled on CentOS and Windows computers, and is also synchronized.

ansible_user = deep

ansible_password = xxx

ansible_port = 5985

ansible_connection = WinRM

ansible_winrm_transport = basic

=============

ansible_winrm_transport is true for the basics on both servers.

Any ideas what else is causing the problem?
