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

	Title		: Using TLS with NNTP
	Author(s)	: J. Vinocur, C. Newman
	Filename	: draft-ietf-nntpext-tls-nntp-01.txt
	Pages		: 11

This memo defines an extension to the Network News Transport
Protocol [NNTP] to provide connection-based encryption (via
Transport Layer Security [TLS]).  The primary goal is to provide
encryption for single-link confidentiality purposes, but data
integrity and (optional) certificate-based peer entity
authentication are also possible.

Send a message to:
	mailserv at ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nntpext-tls-nntp-01.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.
