----- Forwarded message from Internet-Drafts@ietf.org ----- Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2002 06:22:24 -0500 From: Internet-Drafts@ietf.org Reply-To: Internet-Drafts@ietf.org To: IETF-Announce: ; Subject: I-D ACTION:draft-nottingham-http-auth-cache-00.txt A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : HTTP Authentication Credential Caching Extension Author(s) : M. Nottingham Filename : draft-nottingham-http-auth-cache-00.txt Pages : 6 Date : 22-Feb-02 This note proposes an HTTP cache-control extension mechanism that allows caching of authentication credentials, thereby allowing authenticated resources to be served from cache without incurring the cost of a round-trip to the origin server more than once during the freshness lifetime of the credentials. A URL for this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-nottingham-http-auth-cache-00.txt To remove yourself from the IETF Announcement list, send a message to ietf-announce-request with the word unsubscribe in the body of the message. Internet-Drafts are also 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-nottingham-http-auth-cache-00.txt". A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail. Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-nottingham-http-auth-cache-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. ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Mark Nottingham http://www.mnot.net/
