krb524 is not well documented in the Admin Guide.

The use of _krb524._udp.<REALM> SRV records in DNS need to be added

The use of the "krb524_server"=<hostname>[:<port>] value in the
krb5.conf <REALM> ={}
needs to be documented.

The fact that the default port of 4444 is now being blocked by ISP's and
therefore
an alternate port should be used needs to be added.

The algorithm for finding the default location of the krb524 service
when no
other information is provided should also be specified.

I disagree with this. Adding a warning about the default port and
firewalls seems reasonable, but it's sufficiently widely deployed that
recommending people change their krb524 p,orts is probably ill advised.
