A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


	Title		: Password-Based Cryptography Specification PKCS #5 v2.0
	Author(s)	: B. Kaliski
	Filename	: draft-kaliski-pkcs5-v2-03.txt
	Pages		: 33

This document provides recommendations for the implementation of
password-based cryptography, covering key derivation functions,
encryption schemes, message-authentication schemes, and ASN.1 syntax
identifying the techniques.
The recommendations are intended for general application within
computer and communications systems, and as such include a fair
amount of flexibility. They are particularly intended for the
protection of sensitive information such as private keys, as in PKCS
#8 [25]. It is expected that application standards and implementation
profiles based on these specifications may include additional
constraints.

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.
