This is probably being posted in the wrong area, but it's the best I can figure out. Does anybody have copies of ARPA Request for Comments Nos. 791 and 793? I'm not sure exactly what they cover, but I believe they are telecom related and most likely transfer protocols or data packaging formats for mail systems.

You can get them via anonymous UUCP from osu-cis.

RFC791 describes the Internet Protocol, known to its friends as IP. RFC793 covers the Transmission Control Protocol, affectionately known as TCP. TCP and IP are some of the foundations of the DoD Internet protocol suite, above which other protocols are implemented, including SMTP for mail transfer. -=- Bob Sutterfield, Department of Computer and Information Science The Ohio State University; 2036 Neil Ave. Columbus OH USA 43210-1277 bob@cis.ohio-state.edu or ...!att!osu-cis!bob
