I would strongly disagree. We have been taking advantage of the
fact that there are two seperate configuration files. We have a
K4 realm which is using our AFS Kaservers as the KDCS, and we
also have a K5 realm using our DCE security serves as the K5 KDCs.

We rely on the deamons using seperate key files and config files,
yet then can respond on the same port.
