Hi All,
I have made available on
braae.ru.ac.za:/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-1.1-BETA/securedist/
tarballs of the unencumbered securedist for FreeBSD.
The source used in this distribution was written by David Burren
(who originally wrote the DES routines in question for NetBSD).
This distribution is freely distributable (and as far as I know
there is no restriction on _importing_ it into the USA - please
do not export it from the USA again ;-) )
I would like to encourage FreeBSD mirror sites outside the USA to carry
this distribution, and would also like to encourage FreeBSD mirrors in
the USA to direct clients to non-US sites in order to procure
the binaries which use DES encryption.
This distribution does not include the telnet encryption stuff, but
will hopefully do so in the future.
I would like to thank St. Andrew's College, Grahamstown, South Africa
(and Robin Lunn) for the use of their FreeBSD 1.1-BETA system, on
which I built these binaries.
Enjoy!
Geoff.
