- Description of Working Group:
- The TELNET Working Group will examine RFC 854, ``Telnet Protocol
- Specification'', in light of the last six years of technical
- advancements, and will determine if it is still accurate with how the
- TELNET protocol is being used today. This Group will also look at all
- the TELNET options, and decide which are still germane to current day
- implementations of the TELNET protocol.
-
-
- (1) Re-issue RFC 854 to reflect current knowledge and usage of the
- TELNET protocol.
-
- (2) Create RFCs for new TELNET options to clarify or fill in any
- missing voids in the current option set. Specifically:
-
- - Environment variable passing
- - Authentication
- - Encryption
- - Compression
-
- (3) Act as a clearing-house for all proposed RFCs that deal with the
- TELNET protocol.
-
-
-

-
- Done Write an environment option.
