athena-dist.mit.edu:/pub/kerberos/README.KRB4 has info about where the
kerb4 source comes from, and that (the source) would (i hope) have
more documentation about setting it up.  there are also books (scarce,
but they're there.

  unix security a practical tutorial (pub. mcgraw hill, author derek arnold)

has a bit iirc (been i while since i read it) and there's another book
i got on "internet security" (buzzword!) that has a chapter or two on
setting it up and administering it.
