[Serusers] Domain

[Daniel-Constantin Mierla]

The domain (first parameter of www_authorize() ) is called realm it is 
used to challenge the UAs and compute the credentials for 
authentication  -- it can be a simple plain string, at your wish (see 
RFC2617). There are some UAs that accept only the domain they are going 
to register with as realm (afaik, M$/Win Messenger).
