A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the NNTP Extensions Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: NNTP Extension for Authentication
	Author(s)	: J. Vinocur, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-nntpext-authinfo-10.txt
	Pages		: 24
	Date		: 2005-8-9
	
This document defines an extension to the Network News Transport
     Protocol (NNTP) which allows a client to indicate an authentication
     mechanism to the server, perform an authentication protocol
     exchange, and optionally negotiate a security layer for subsequent
     protocol interactions during the remainder of an NNTP session.

     This document updates and formalizes the AUTHINFO USER/PASS
     authentication method specified in RFC 2980 and deprecates the
     AUTHINFO SIMPLE and AUTHINFO GENERIC authentication methods.
     Additionally, this document defines a profile of the Simple
     Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) for NNTP.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nntpext-authinfo-10.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.
