directory ("cd RFC"). The file name is of the form RFCnnnn.TXT-1
(where "nnnn" refers to the number of the RFC).

cannot use FTP. Address the request to NIS-INFO@NIS.NSF.NET and leave
the subject field of the message blank. The first line of the text of
the message must be "SEND RFCnnnn.TXT-1", where nnnn is replaced by
the RFC number.
