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

	Title		: FTP Security Extensions
	Author(s)	: M. Horowitz, S. Lunt
	Filename	: draft-ietf-cat-ftpsec-10.txt
	Pages		: 22
	Date		: 14-Oct-97
	
   This document defines extensions to the FTP specification RFC 959,
   'FILE TRANSFER PROTOCOL (FTP)' (October 1985).  These extensions
   provide strong authentication, integrity, and confidentiality on both
   the control and data channels with the introduction of new optional
   commands, replies, and file transfer encodings.
 
   The following new optional commands are introduced in this
   specification:
 
      AUTH (Authentication/Security Mechanism),
      ADAT (Authentication/Security Data),
      PROT (Data Channel Protection Level),
      PBSZ (Protection Buffer Size),
      CCC (Clear Command Channel),
      MIC (Integrity Protected Command),
      CONF (Confidentiality Protected Command), and
      ENC (Privacy Protected Command).
 
   A new class of reply types (6yz) is also introduced for protected
   replies.
 
   None of the above commands are required to be implemented, but
   interdependencies exist.  These dependencies are documented with the commands.

Internet-Drafts are available by anonymous FTP.  Login wih the username

Send a message to:	[email-masked].  In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-cat-ftpsec-10.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ds.internic.net 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.
