Title: GSS-API Domain-Based Service Names and Name Type
State: Active

This document describes domainname-based service principal names and the
corresponding name type for the Generic Security Service Application
Programming Interface (GSS-API). Domain-based service names are similar to
host-based service names, but using a domain name (not necessarily and
Internat domain name) instead of or in addition to a hostname. The primary
purpose of domain-based service names is to provide a way to name clustered
services after the domain which they service, thereby allowing their
clients to authorize the service's servers based on authentication of their
names.
