A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Domain Name System Security Working Group 
of the IETF.

	Title		: Intermediate Security Failures in DNSSEC
	Author(s)	: O. Gudmundsson, B. Wellington
	Filename	: draft-ietf-dnssec-secfail-00.txt
	Pages		: 5
	Date		: 06-Aug-98
	
     This document identifies the situations where a signature
     verification fails in a recursive security aware DNS server, and
     how DNS servers should handle these cases, and the errors that
     should be reported to DNS resolvers.  This document proposes a new
     error to be returned by DNSSEC capable servers.
 
     A DNSSEC server acting as a recursive server MUST validate the
     signatures on RRsets in a response it passes on; this draft
     addresses the case when the data it receives fails signature
     verification.  The end resolver must be notified of this occurence
     in such a way that it will not confuse it with another error.

Send a message to:	mailserv@ietf.org.  In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dnssec-secfail-00.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
