OK, I've got a preliminary implementation of name canonicalization
(for client referrals). A few more questions:

- In an old article by Peter Brundrett, he notes that a KDC would
  need to support NetBIOS names of the form \\SERVER\share. Is
  this correct? Should they be mapped to service principals of
  HOST/SERVER?

- Is there any documentation on the GSS-API authentication flavour
  as used in Microsoft's RPC implementation? I'd like to get the
  FreeDCE runtime interoperating with Windows 2000.

cheers,
