A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries.
RFC 1798:
Title: Connection-less Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol
Author: A. Young
Date: June 1995
Mailbox: A.Young@isode.com
Pages: 9
Characters: 18,548
Updates/Obsoletes: none
URL: ftp://ds.internic.net/rfc/rfc1798.txt
The protocol described in this document is designed to provide access
to the Directory while not incurring the resource requirements of the
Directory Access Protocol (DAP). In particular, it is aimed at
avoiding the elapsed time that is associated with connection-oriented
communication and it facilitates use of the Directory in a manner
analagous to the DNS (Domain Name Service). It is specifically
targeted at simple lookup applications that require to read a small
number of attribute values from a single entry. It is intended to be
a complement to DAP and LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol).
The protocol specification draws heavily on that of LDAP. This memo
was initiated in the [now defunct] OSI Directory Services Working
Group and completed by the Access and Synchronization of the Internet
Directories Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.
This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the
Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet
Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state and
status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
