I am probably missing some context then. I haven't really followed
the discussions so far. Sorry about that.

But a question on SRV records. You would be creating a label,
something like "_mih._udp.example.com". You would then set aside
a new SRV record for the above label. Then the mobile node would be
configured to do a DNS lookup based on the above label. example.com
can be translated into any realm.

Isn't this sufficient? Not clear why you need NAPTR records.
