krb5kdc fails to start with vlan network interface

Hello,

I'm having a curious problem with a Fedora core 1 box and krb5-1.3.4-7.
This box is part of a cluster where it needs access to multiple networks.
Instead of putting 4 or 5 nics in it, we have assigned vlan's to the nics
to get onto the appropriate subnets.  Interfaces are named eth1.100,
eth1.41 and so on.  I'm able to build the above krb5 version in Fedora
core 1 without problems, and kadmin starts up fine.  But krb5kdc will not
start.  The following shows up in the log...

I have tried this same krb5 version on other systems that don't have vlan
interfaces setup and it works fine.  There is nothing listening on these
interfaces that would interfere with the daemon starting up either.

Can someone offer some help as to why this might be behaving like this?
Am I even on the right track thinking the vlans are the issue?

It there a way to force binding to a specific interface?  Not that it
matters, just curious.


Thanks for any help,
Jason
