A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories. This draft is a work item of the Integrated Directory
Services Working Group of the IETF.
Title : NAMING PLAN FOR AN INTERNET DIRECTORY SERVICE
Author(s) : A. Grimstad, R. Huber, S. Sataluri
Filename : draft-ietf-ids-dirnaming-00.txt
Pages : 11
Date : 11/25/1996
Application of the conventional X.500 approach to naming has, in the
experience of the authors, proven to be an obstacle to the creation of
directory services. We propose a new directory naming plan that leverages
the strengths of the most popular and successful Internet naming schemes
for naming objects in a hierarchical directory. This plan can, we believe,
facilitate the creation of an Internet White Pages Service (IWPS) by
overcoming the problems encountered by those using the conventional
recommended X.500 approach to naming.
Internet-Drafts are available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then
"get draft-ietf-ids-dirnaming-00.txt".
A URL for the Internet-Draft is:

Internet-Drafts directories are located at:
o Africa: ftp.is.co.za
o Europe: nic.nordu.net

Internet-Drafts are also available by mail.
Send a message to: mailserv@ds.internic.net. In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ids-dirnaming-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.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the Internet-Draft.
