A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL)
Author(s) : A. Melnikov, K. Zeilenga
Filename : draft-zeilenga-sasl-rfc2222bis-00.txt
Pages : 29
Date : 2005-5-17
The Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) is a framework for
providing authentication and data security services in
connection-oriented protocols via replaceable mechanisms. It provides
a structured interface between protocols and mechanisms. The
resulting framework allows new protocols to reuse existing mechanisms
and allows old protocols to make use of new mechanisms. The framework
also provides a protocol for securing subsequent protocol exchanges
within a data security layer.
This document describes how a SASL mechanism is structured, describes
how protocols include support for SASL, and defines the protocol for
carrying a data security layer over a connection. Additionally, this
document defines one SASL mechanism, the EXTERNAL mechanism.
This document obsoletes RFC 2222.

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