A Revised Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories. This draft is a work item of the Point-to-Point Protocol 
Extensions Working Group of the IETF.                                      

       Title     : The PPP NetBIOS Frames Control Protocol (NBFCP)

The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) [1] provides a standard method for 
transporting multi-protocol datagrams over point-to-point links.  PPP 
defines an extensible Link Control Protocol, and proposes a family of 
Network Control Protocols for establishing and configuring different 
network-layer protocols.       

The NBF protocol was originally called the NetBEUI protocol and was used 
in versions of DOS and OS/2 LAN Manager.  It is now used in Microsoft 
Windows NT and Microsoft Windows for Workgroups.  This document defines the 
Network Control Protocol for establishing and configuring the 
NBF protocol over PPP.   

The NBFCP protocol is only applicable for an end system to connect to a peer 
system or the LAN that peer system is connected to.  It is not applicable for
connecting two LANs together due to NetBIOS name limitations and 
NetBIOS name defense mechanisms.

Send a message to:  [e-mail]. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-pppext-netbios-fcp-06.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.
							
For questions, please mail to [e-mail].
							

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader 
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
