Supposedly now that there is a registered service with the IANA, we should be using that within the SRV lookup (see RFC 2782, Format -> Service (interesting bit at the top of page 3). This means that _jabber._tcp should really be _jabber-server._tcp. Whoops.

Is this the recomended usage then when creating SRV records? eg.:

_jabber-server._tcp.mydomain.com pointing to 5269
_jabber-client._tcp.mydomain.com pointing at 5222
