Please see the text I quoted before. If you want other servers to find a particular component of your server (e.g., wave.example.com) and communicate with that component over s2s, then you need a way for those other servers to figure out which specific machine they need to connect to (IP address and port); the preferred mechanism for this is an SRV record. > Maybe I should read that draft RFC. Will do so now.
