      Ticket becomes "T-Pass" and Authenticator becomes "Ticket." For a
      T-Pass is good an arbitrary number of times, by one user, for a given
      time duration. A ticket is useful only once.

   I couldn't resist.... how about "token"? 

   :-)

Does that make a set of authenticated principals in a circle a "token
ring"?

:-) :-) :-)
