[comp.dcom.lans] NetBIOS specification in RFC

harish@guille.ece.orst.edu (Harish Pillay) (06/06/89)

In Douglas Comer's TCP/IP book, he mentions "that Internet engineers have
developed a standard that specifies how NetBIOS operations can be supported
in an Internet environment." Also, "the work, already adopted as an Internet
standard, specifies the semantics for each NetBIOS operation by explaining
how the operation maps onto the Internet protocols and address scheme."
(page 258 last paragraph).

Question:  Where is it actually defined?  Is it a RFC?  If so, what 
           number is it?  I searched RFC 1000, but no mention of it 
	   was made.  Maybe I'm not greping the right string.

Apologies if this has already been discussed.  E-mail replies please.

Thank you.

RFC 1000 is nice, but it only summarizes what came before.  You really
want the file "rfc-index.txt" from SRI-NIC, which has everything up to
the minute (they are beyond 1100 by now).
