 A Revised 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 : C-bindings     
       Author(s) : J. Wray
       Filename  : draft-ietf-cat-gssv2-cbind-04.txt

This draft document specifies C language bindings for Version 2 of the 
Generic Security Service Application Program Interface (GSSAPI), which is 
described at a language-independent conceptual level in other drafts 
[GSSAPI]. It revises RFC-1509, making specific incremental changes in 
response to implementation experience and liaison requests.  It is 
intended, therefore, that this draft or a successor version thereof will 
become the basis for subsequent progression of the GSS-API specification on
the standards track.                                                 

The Generic Security Service Application Programming Interface provides 
security services to its callers, and is intended for implementation atop a
variety of underlying cryptographic mechanisms.  Typically, GSSAPI callers 
will be application protocols into which security enhancements are 
integrated through invocation of services provided by the GSSAPI. The 
GSSAPI allows a caller application to authenticate a principal identity 
associated with a peer application, to delegate rights to a peer, and to 
apply security services such as confidentiality and integrity on a 
per-message basis.

Send a message to:  [e-mail]. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-cat-gssv2-cbind-04.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.
