*** OSF-RFC ANNOUNCEMENT ***
The following OSF-RFC has just been published:
=====================================================================
68.0 J. Wray, "Public-Key Login for DCE 1.2", November 1994.
Bytes: roff=33293, txt=21899, ps=78793; pages: txt=8, ps=5.
This document contains a discussion of the proposed public-key based
login protocol for DCE 1.2. The major goal of the work is to allow
log-in without requiring that user secret data be known to the DCE
security server, and to provide a means for secure storage of user
private-keys for users without smart-cards.
