the traditional way of doing this is to create directories
service.$function and/or service.$function.auth and use them
as arguments to listen.  the exact arguments to listen should
depend on $sysname (whaever your cpurc setup).  that way,
you don't have stuff that's mucking with the namespace depending
to much on construction of the namespace.

for example, i start this on the public interface of my auth server
(i knew the fancy new way to do this is with /cfg/$sysname/cpurc, but
you get the point):

...
	switch($sysname){
	...
	case ladd:
		...
		aux/listen -q -t /rc/bin/service.auth -d /rc/bin/service.ext /net.alt/tcp
...

; cd /rc/bin; lc service.ext
!tcp17007	tcp17010		tcp25
tcp17009		tcp17013
; lc service.auth
!il566	tcp22	tcp566	tcp567	tcp993	tcp995
