Summary:  Almost ready
--------

Minor issues:
-------------

In Problem 2, would it be useful to reference RFC 6151, which indicates why
MD5 is problematic?

Problem 6 (Hosting multiple realms on a single IP address is challenging...)
doesn't really seem to be a problem with authentication as such, so while
it's clearly a problem, is it in scope? It isn't quite clear to me that
there's a security threat there.
