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

	Title		: A SOCKS-based IPv6/IPv4 Gateway Mechanism
	Author(s)	: H. Kitamura, A. Jinzaki, S. Kobayashi
	Filename	: draft-ietf-ngtrans-socks-gateway-00.txt
	Pages		: 15
	Date		: 23-Apr-99
	
This document describes an IPv6/IPv4 gateway mechanism that is based
on the SOCKS protocol [SOCKSv5]. By enhancing the SOCKS mechanism to
support the heterogeneous communications relays between IPv6 and IPv4
at the SOCKS server, the SOCKS-based IPv6/IPv4 gateway mechanism is
accomplished.

The SOCKS-based gateway mechanism enables the IPv6 nodes and IPv4
nodes to communicate with each other smoothly without sacrificing any
conveniences and functionalities of current communication methods.

In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ngtrans-socks-gateway-00.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org 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.
