Searching for Internet engineering info?

If you're trying to search for technical information about Internet operation, I, of course, recommend this site. Full text search of Connected: An Internet Encyclopedia and all RFCs is at your disposal, based on CNIDR's Isearch software. Please remember to dot your i's, enclose multi-word strings in quotes, like "name server", and feel free to use boolean constructors and parentheses. If you don't find what you're looking for here, be sure to check Surf Sites. See also Search Engine Design.
