/usr/vice/etc/CellServDB serves roughtly the same function for 
kaserver-based authentication that /etc/krb.conf serves for krb4.

BTW, you could make your "kerberos" DNS entry a round-robin, or you could 
use a version of krb4 which will try kerberos-1, kerberos-2, etc. if 
kerberos doesn't respond (KTH kerberos does this).
