A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the LDAP Extension Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Persistent Search: A Simple LDAP Change Notification 
                          Mechanism
	Author(s)	: M. Smith, G. Good, T. Howes, R. Weltman

This document defines two controls that extend the LDAPv3 [LDAP] search
operation to provide a simple mechanism by which an LDAP client can
receive notification of changes that occur in an LDAP server.  The
mechanism is designed to be very flexible yet easy for clients and
servers to implement.  Since the IETF is likely to pursue a different,
more comprehensive solution in this area, this document will eventually
be published with Informational status in order to document an existing
practice.

In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ldapext-psearch-03.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org 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.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
