	 	When trying to restart the kerberos server on my machine, I get an
	 error message "Can't bind socket" (errno 48: address already in use). 
	 When I do an rpcinfo -p, I find:

	    program vers proto   port
	     100026    1   udp    750  bootparam

	 But port 750 is the port reserved for kerberos in /etc/services:

	 kerberos        750/udp         kdc             # Kerberos authenticat
	ion--udp

You're running afoul of Sun's portmapper.  You have to fire up Kerberos
first.  For that matter, if you kill and restart bootparam, I think
you'd get a different port.

I forget exactly what range the portmapper will use; the real would have
been to use a port number not in that range for Kerberos.  Perhaps for
V5?
