	Recently an rfc931 implementation of an authentication server was
	made available.  I understand the basics of the protocol after
	reading the RFC and author notes, but I am curious why I should use
	it now.  Do any utilities available today utilize the authentication
	server?  What good does it do for me to run it now?
