You probably can't. The US govt has this wonderful view that US citizens
and companies doing anything like funding encryption work outside the USA
are at least accessories to so

make sense to add a few packages:
Some cryptographic library
Some cryptographic Perl modules
openssl

I'm having trouble getting the --iscrypted flag to work for a redhat 6.1

Same here.
The following is what I got from pstree:
|-inetd---in.identd---in.identd---9*[in.identd]
Also, there is 11 httpd and 6 mingetty. My box is really heavily populated.
Maybe I should implement an population control policy. :)
Why they are there? Any idea?
Thanks.

I sent a more detailed response via e-mail. This is a more general
reply to the list because I believe this represents an interesting
problem.
Printing apparently uses the "magic rules" in /usr/share/magic to
determine file type for printing.
