Changes to the registry (proposed)
I've augmented the existing EcogridRegEntryType with two elements:
-authenticationDomain
-clusterName  

The authenticationDomain is a complex element that names and describes (with an
endpoint) how to authenticate when using the service with this
authenticationDomain.  

The clusterName is a string that serves to tie services together as a node or
cluster of services.  I've assumed that services that share the same
clusterName should also share the same authenticationDomain.  It may be the
case that clusterName is extraneous and that we can simply use the
authenticationDomain/domainName to cluster related services together.

an example of the added elements are:

<authenticationDomain>
  <domainName>localhost</domainName>
  <serviceOperation>serviceOperation</serviceOperation>
 
<serviceURL>http://localhost:8080/knb/services/EcoGridAuthLevelOneService</serviceURL>
 
<serviceClass>org.kepler.authentication.LDAPAuthenticationService</serviceClass>
</authenticationDomain>
<clusterName>localhost</clusterName>
