A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Network File System Version 4 Working Group of the IETF.
Title : RPC Numbering Authority Transfer to IANA
Author(s) : R. Thurlow
Filename : draft-ietf-nfsv4-rpc-iana-00.txt
Pages : 12
Date : 2003-5-20
Network services based on RPC [RFC1831] use program numbers rather
than well known transport ports to permit clients to find them, and
use authentication flavor numbers to define the format of the
authentication data passed. The assignment of RPC program numbers
and authentication flavor numbers is still performed by Sun
Microsystems, Inc. This is inappropriate for an IETF standard
protocol, as such work is done well by the Internet Assigned Numbers
Authority (IANA). This document defines how IANA will maintain and
assign RPC program numbers and authentication flavor numbers.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nfsv4-rpc-iana-00.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
