You can get RFCs by anonymous FTP from nic.mil.ddn (formerly sri-nic.arpa).
CD to the RFC: (the colon is necessary) directory. Then get all the RFCs
your heart desires. There's an index file that's pretty useful, especially
since you can use grep to find pretty much anything (assuming you're a
Unix type).

Good luck.
