   	Just a quick question. Are the port numbers used by kerberos
   registered?

No.

   	They clashed with the numbers we use for aufs and so had to be 
   moved.
   
I don't think this is true.  Kerberos uses UDP 750, TCP 751 and 754.
The old KIP ports are 769-776 and the registered KIP ports are in the
200's. (Various kerberized applications use other ports but none
conflict with KIP)


Also, if AUFS and Kerberos did conflict it wouldn't matter unless you
intend to run an AUFS server on the same machine you run a Kerberos
server.  That would be a foolish thing to do.  You don't want to run
any services on your KDC machine that you don't need.
