A Revised Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories. This draft is a work item of the DNS IXFR, Notification, and
Dynamic Update Working Group of the IETF.

       Title     : Dynamic Updates in the Domain Name System (DNS UPDATE)
       Author(s) : P. Vixie, S. Thomson, Y. Rekhter, J. Bound
       Filename  : draft-ietf-dnsind-dynDNS-08.txt
       Pages     : 27
       Date      : 03/13/1996

The Domain Name System was originally designed to support queries of a
statically configured database.  While the data was expected to change, the
frequency of those changes was expected to be fairly low, and all updates
were made as external edits to a zone's Master File.

Using this specification of the UPDATE opcode, it is possible to add
or delete RRs or RRsets from a specified zone.  Prerequisites are specified
separately from update operations, and can specify a dependency upon either
the previous existence or nonexistence of an RRset, or the existence of a
single RR.

UPDATE is atomic, i.e., all prerequisites must be satisfied or else
no update operations will take place.  There are no data dependent
error conditions defined after the prerequisites have been met.

Send a message to:  mailserv@ds.internic.net. In the body type:
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dnsind-dynDNS-08.txt".

NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net 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.

For questions, please mail to Internet-Drafts@cnri.reston.va.us.


Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the Internet-Draft.
