A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 5178 Title: Generic Security Service Application Program Interface (GSS-API) Internationalization and Domain-Based Service Names and Name Type Author: N. Williams, A. Melnikov Status: Standards Track Date: May 2008 Mailbox: Nicolas.Williams@sun.com, Alexey.Melnikov@isode.com Pages: 9 Characters: 17262 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-kitten-gssapi-domain-based-names-06.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5178.txt This document describes domain-name-based service principal names and the corresponding name type for the Generic Security Service Application Programming Interface (GSS-API). Internationalization of the GSS-API is also covered. Domain-based service names are similar to host-based service names, but using a domain name (not necessarily an Internet domain name) in addition to a hostname. The primary purpose of domain-based names is to provide a measure of protection to applications that utilize insecure service discovery protocols. This is achieved by providing a way to name clustered services after the "domain" which they service, thereby allowing their clients to authorize the service's servers based on authentication of their service names. [STANDARDS TRACK] This document is a product of the Kitten (GSS-API Next Generation) Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Internet Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. This announcement is sent to the IETF list and the RFC-DIST list. Requests to be added to or deleted from the IETF distribution list should be sent to IETF-REQUEST@IETF.ORG. Requests to be added to or deleted from the RFC-DIST distribution list should be sent to RFC-DIST-REQUEST@RFC-EDITOR.ORG.
