Minutes of the TELNET Working Group (TELNET)

The Telnet Working Group met on July 14th in Cambridge.  The primary
topic of discussion was (once again) encryption.  A compromise position
was reached in which the following will occur:


     We will move forward with folding encryption into the
     authentication option as discussed in San Diego.  This document
     will be put forth as a Proposed Standard.  The older encryption
     document will be put forth as an Experimental RFC when the
     newer one is available.  The older one is not felt to be secure
     in the face of active attacks, and therefore should not be
     ``blessed.''


In other business, the Group will recommend that Environment Option be
put forth as a Proposed Standard, and that Authentication Option,
Kerberos IV Authentication Suboption, and SPX Authentication Suboption
be put out as Experimental RFCs.  The Kerberos V Authentication
Suboption is still being revised by Ted Ts'o, and will also be put out
as an Experimental RFC when done.
