Hi,
If this is off-topic, my apologies, but I know some of y'all were there
(Noel), so I'm hoping it's close enough to on-topic to garner a
successful response. I'm looking for the ARPANET Protocol Handbook by
Feinler, E. and Postel, J., published by SRI back in the day (revised
edition 1978) in an online format (pdf preferably, but anything readable
is fine. I came across the reference in RFC 790 - Assigned Numbers. If
it's been superceded and the successor is available, that would probably
work, too. Although, I prefer the earlier works for concision.
Regards,
Will

DTIC has it as a citation with accession number ADA003890:
https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/citations/ADA003890
but doesn't have it online as a digital document

Searching on author Feinler confirmed my recollection of a successor document, the ?DDN
Protocol Handbook? in three volumes. (Volume 1 available as PDF from this source.) These
collect RFCs and other documents, often with MIL-STD numbers. Not entirely replaceable
from the IETF?s RFC filepile.

The one you are looking for describes the NCP-era ARPANET. The ?DDN Protocol Handbook?

Steve,
That did the trick! Thanks. Sometimes, I loath standard search engines.
I didn't even know about NTRL - a treasure trove, indeed.
Thanks,
Will
