Hi Gregory!

You're right: ds.internet.net no longer exists!! We're about to publish
a new draft of the spec that fixes that (and other things).

Until then, get RFC 1776 at
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1776.txt

P.S. Your signature contains a Ben Franklyn quote and you're looking
for RFC 1776. What's with the patriotism?
