	   We have another problem: although Kerberos 5 works great, we
   would like to service Kerberos 4 requests as well.  There is very
   little documentation on this.  We did do the configure with the
   --with-krb4 option, and the kdc responds to Kerberos 4 requests, but
   our Kerberos 4 clients always report that we have given an incorrect
   password.  We know its looking at the database because if we enter a
   name not in the database, it says so.

If you want to use Kerberos V4 requests, you must use V4 salt --- if
you are using kdb5_edit to add your keys, make sure you are using the
av4k command in order to add the keys using the V4 salt.
