kinit fail on AIX

Hi,

I compiled and installed kerberos 1.4.3, 1.4.1, 1.3.6 on AIX (5.2). Kinit 
works fine for version 1.3.6. But when I run kinit under v1.4.3 or 1.4.1, 
it gave me error: kinit(v5): Cannot resolve network address for KDC in 
requested realm while getting initial credentials

Here are the commands I used:
./configure --prefix=/users/mmm/krb5_1.4.3 --with-krb4 --enable-static 
--disable-shared
make
make install

I think kerberos 1.3.6 uses the save configuration file(/etc/krb.conf, 
krb5.conf) as 1.4.3 and the DNS host name to IP address lookup works 
fine.  So what's the problem? any suggestion?

Thanks,

Hong
