A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Simple Authentication and Security Layer Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL)
Author(s) : A. Melnikov
Filename : draft-ietf-sasl-rfc2222bis-08.txt
Pages : 11
Date : 2004-6-29
The Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) is a framework
for providing authentication and data security services in
connection-based protocols. It also describes a structure for
authentication mechanisms. The result is an abstraction layer
between protocols and authentication mechanisms such that any SASL-
compatible authentication mechanism can be used with any SASL-
compatible protocol.
This document describes how a SASL authentication mechanism is
structured, describes how a protocol adds support for SASL, defines
the protocol for carrying a security layer over a connection, and
defines the SASL EXTERNAL authentication mechanism.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sasl-rfc2222bis-08.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.
