[comp.protocols.kerberos] kerberos under SunOS4.1.1

Has kerberos been successfully compiled and tested under SunOS4.1.1.  I am
attempting to install it on a Sun4/490.  kbd_init and kbd_edit seemed to work
ok.  However, when I tried to start kerberos I keep getting the following
error:

unix> /usr/etc/kerberos &

 Kerberos server starting
        Sleep forever on error
        Log file is /kerberos/kerberos.log
./kerberos: Can't bind socket

unix>

I have set up the kerberos service in /etc/services, and as far as I can tell
there doesn't seem to be any program running on socket 750.  Have I missed
something in the configuration, or is this an OS version problem.

Are you running as root?  Unix has this silly idea that only root
should be able to bind ports < 1024 ...

There has been previous discussion that Kerberos needs to be started before
the port mapper other wise the portmapper owns all the ports and Kerberos
dies.
