CURRENT_MEETING_REPORT_ Reported by Jeff Schiller/MIT PSWDMGMT BOF Minutes Agenda The Password Management group met in St. Louis as an informal Birds of a Feather session. The efforts of this group fall into two categories. The first is to define a series of protocols to be used within the context of the Common Authentication Technology (CAT). The second is to discuss issues involved in the use of one-time passwords on the Internet without the modification of existing TELNET client software. It was decided that the first activity is best performed under the auspices of the CAT Working Group. The second activity isn't really an activity that would lead to a protocol per-se and is therefore best left to implementors. The SAAG will encourage such implementations and may in the future act to make the technology more widely available. The group will cease formal activities. However, the exploration of one-time password mechanisms and their impact on telnet in particular will remain a SAAG work item.
