I don't think this is true.  DCE/RPC uses Kerberos 5 for security, and
the K5 ticket format uses ASN.1.  However, the RPC marshalling code uses
something similar to XDR.  One of the differences from XDR is that
doesn't use network byte order, but, I think, sender byte order.

Otherwise, the clarification of AFS vs. DFS RPC history is correct.
