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		: Generic Security Service API Version 2 : Java bindings
	Author(s)	: J. Kabat
	Filename	: draft-ietf-cat-gssv2-javabind-04.txt
	Pages		: 99
	Date		: 23-Dec-99
	
The Generic Security Services Application Program Interface (GSS-API)
offers application programmers uniform access to security services
atop a variety of underlying cryptographic mechanisms. This document
specifies the Java bindings for GSS-API which is described at a
language independent conceptual level in RFC 2078 [GSSAPIv2].
 
The GSS-API allows a caller application to authenticate a principal
identity, to delegate rights to a peer, and to apply security
services such as confidentiality and integrity on a per-message
basis. Examples of security mechanisms defined for GSS-API are The
Simple Public-Key GSS-API Mechanism [SPKM] and The Kerberos Version 5
GSS-API Mechanism [KERBV5].

Send a message to:

In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-cat-gssv2-javabind-04.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.

implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
