2626 Nesser II Jun 1999 The Internet and the
Millennium Problem (Year 2000)
The Year 2000 Working Group (WG) has conducted an investigation into the
millennium problem as it regards Internet related protocols. This
investigation only targeted the protocols as documented in the Request
For Comments Series (RFCs). This investigation discovered little reason
for concern with regards to the functionality of the protocols. A few
minor cases of older implementations still using two digit years (ala
RFC850) were discovered, but almost all Internet protocols were given a
clean bill of health. Several cases of "period" problems were
discovered, where a time field would "roll over" as the size of field
was reached. In particular, there are several protocols, which have 32
bit, signed integer representations of the number of seconds since
January 1, 1970 which will turn negative at Tue Jan 19 03:14:07 GMT
2038. Areas whose protocols will be effected by such problems have been
notified so that new revisions will remove this limitation. This memo
provides information for the Internet community.
