	// OnConnect is called whenever connection to server is established.

	// Don't forget overriding Server.Listener accordingly.

	// See also OnConnect for authentication/authorization purposes.
	//
	// * NewTLSClient() and NewTLSServer() can be used for encrypted rpc.
	// * NewUnixClient() and NewUnixServer() can be used for fast local
	//   inter-process rpc.
