RFCs can be obtained via FTP from VENERA.ISI.EDU, with the pathname
in-notes/rfcnnnn.txt (where "nnnn" refers to the number of the RFC).
Login with FTP username "anonymous" and password "guest".

RFCs can also be obtained via electronic mail from VENERA.ISI.EDU by
using the RFC-INFO service.  Address the request to "rfc-info@isi.edu"
with a message body of:

	Retrieve: RFC
	   Doc-ID: RFCnnnn

(Where "nnnn" refers to the number of the RFC (always use 4 digits -
the DOC-ID of RFC-822 is "RFC0822")).  The RFC-INFO@ISI.EDU server
provides other ways of selecting RFCs based on keywords and such; for
more information send a message to "rfc-info@isi.edu" with the message
body "help: help".
