The IESG has received a request from the Common Authentication Technology Next Generation WG (kitten) to consider the following document: - 'Anonymity Support for Kerberos' <draft-ietf-kitten-rfc6112bis-02.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2016-11-02. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document defines extensions to the Kerberos protocol to allow a Kerberos client to securely communicate with a Kerberos application service without revealing its identity, or without revealing more than its Kerberos realm. It also defines extensions that allow a Kerberos client to obtain anonymous credentials without revealing its identity to the Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC). This document updates RFCs 4120, 4121, and 4556. This document obsoletes RFC 6112 and reclassifies that document as historic. RFC 6112 contained errors and the protocol described in that specification is not interoperable with any known implementation. This specification describes a protocol that interoperates with multiple implementations. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-kitten-rfc6112bis/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-kitten-rfc6112bis/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
