Thanks to Charles Menser at Peachnet for his insight.
He said that the bind won't happen if the socket is already used.
Well, nothing else is active that is using the socket!!! therefore the
warm reboot (shutdown -r ) did NOT clear the old sockets. I just did a
shutdown -h, then turned the power off the Sun (spark 2 / SunOS 4.1.3 )
and when I brought it back up, kerberos started with no problems.
bye.
