A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Kerberos Clock Synchronization
Author(s) : J. Weber
Filename : draft-weber-krb-wg-kerberos-clock-
synchronization-00.txt
Pages : 10
Date : 2003-6-17
This document discusses the security vulnerabilities that can exist
in the Kerberos protocol and related protocols when clock
synchronization is insecure, alternative methods that can be used to
reduce or eliminate dependency on secure clock synchronization, and
sanity checks which can be used when setting the system clock using
an insecure time source as a reference in order to remove security
vulnerabilities.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-weber-krb-wg-kerberos-clock-synchronization-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.
