Hmmm, while I do not propose to make any changes at the moment, and will
content my self with documenting the current situation in the chapters of
file serving and print serving.

However, it seems that in the case that newer clients use ???? as the
service type, we can use the current algorithm, but where they specify a
service type, we should keep the name spaces separate.
