Digest authentication

I posted this on a work blog and I think for some of this kind of link collection information, I'm going to post it here as well in the future. Searching my personal weblog is becoming a standard way to handle data retrieval.

A small collection of RFCs related to digest authentication:

• RFC 2069 An Extension to HTTP - Digest Access Authentication
• RFC 2831 Using Digest Authentication as a SASL (RFC 2222, Simple Authentication and Security Layer) Mechanism.
• RFC 2817 Upgrading to TLS Within HTTP/1.1
• RFC 2829 Authentication Methods for LDAP
• RFC 2617 HTTP Authentication: Basic and Digest Access Authentication
