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

       Title     : TFTP Timeout Interval and Transfer Size Options         
       Author(s) : G. Malkin, A. Harkin
       Filename  : draft-ietf-tftpexts-options-00.txt
       Pages     : 4
       Date      : 12/13/1994

The Trivial File Transfer Protocol [1] is a simple, lock-step, file 
transfer protocol which allows a client to get or put a file onto 
a remote host.    

This document describes two TFTP options. The first allows the 
client and server to negotiate the Timeout Interval.  The second allows 
the side receiving the file to determine the ultimate size of the transfer 
before it begins.  The TFTP Option Extension mechanism is described in [2].

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

Send a message to:  mailserv@ds.internic.net. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-tftpexts-options-00.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 Internet-Drafts@cnri.reston.va.us.
							

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader 
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the Internet-Draft.
