Could you please announce their availability it whichever news groups since our news is dodgy again (bunyip at Queensland Uni is one sick machine :-(. Could you please attach the following to your announcement. ------ I have finally finished re-implementation of encryption in Bones. The following are the still existing problems. - The des routines need to be compatible with MIT version. They are not currently. Soon I will have access to binary version of MITs routines (they are shipped with ultrix 4) and I will attempt (by brute force if needed :-) to make all of my routines 100% compatible with the ultrix version. This new version will be released when in the next few weeks (I hope :-). - rlogin -x and rcp -x could have problems when working with MIT's version - Since I am about to get snowed under with other work, I am sending out my version of encrypting Bones without as much testing as I would like. All the programs work here on the vax architecture but I have not been able to test them on 68000, sparc or MIPS processors yet. If there are any problems/fixes needed, please send them to me.
