Except that it solves only a narrow case of authentication. It's a hop-by-hop solution and mostly authenticates the server, rather than the data the server is feeding the client. For the data the server truly is creating, that's probably ok. For data it's merely relaying, on behalf of the actual author, it's probably not. So while, yes, authenticating the content is more hassle, it's also more meaningful. And therefore, contrary to Richard's assessment, I think the question of widely-used content-based authentication mechanisms is relevant, specifically because it demonstrates the viability of actual, end-to-end identification, rather than hop-by-hop (and therefore within-relay-exposed) channel-based approaches. The question then is not what mechanisms exist, but what mechanisms are actually in widespread use. d/ -- Dave Crocker Brandenburg InternetWorking bbiw.net -- Dave Crocker Brandenburg InternetWorking bbiw.net
