Well, the locator string is generic, but can be used to point to services, one
such
service is authentication. The string it self can be used as the login.
And idea would be: <server>:<DotGNU Object/Service>:<Object Info (Plus extras)>
So an idea for authentications would be foo.bar:authen:username(encrypted
object)
Of course if the user to be logged it could use:
address@hidden <= In it would be translated into something DotGNU could use.
Mind you this is not entirely complete, but the string is to be used to
indetify other
services, or information on another machine.
