Excerpts from ext.ietf-http: 20-Feb-96 Auth / APOP / RFC1734 / RFC.. Peter J Churchyard@trust (891*) > I have hinted at mechanisms in which I believe the multi handshakes used by > KERBEROS and GSSAPI may be done within the existing http protocols. Note that the GSSAPI is a different class of `thing' than Kerberos, and is indeed very generic; a Web security context establishment meta-protocol that mentioned only the GSSAPI, and avoided mention of any specific security mechanism, could support a variety of actual security protocols.
