Hi guys !!
I saw some talk about sendmail etc... security . Why not write or aquire
your own security programs? I'am working on an Encryption project...(sorry
no details..) ,it seems the Us of A is treating encryption algorithms as
ammmunition(of which export is prohbited..).
No good public key algo is available to developers ; you must write your own
or Use ones supplied by GNU or CryptoAPI by Microsoft and only if you're a
US citizen you're permitted to Licence encryption from RSA inc etc...
Anyway a good solution to the problem might be to use the following command
[root@localhost /] finger # the pun is intentional
or else read an excellent book by Bruce Schneier-Applied Cryptography, which
lists about 9 encryption algorithms <<with complete C-code>>.And the links

standard }
