To fix this in the source code, change the line in function make_signature_certificate in crypto.c from byte inbuf[MAX_BYTE_PRECISION], outbuf[MAX_BYTE_PRECISION]; to byte inbuf[MAX_BYTE_PRECISION], outbuf[MAX_BYTE_PRECISION+2]; WHERE CAN I GET VIACRYPT PGP? Viacrypt has versions of PGP complete with licenses for commercial use of the RSA and IDEA encryption algorithms. Viacrypt PGP comes in executable code only (no source code), but it is based on (and just as secure as) the freeware PGP. Viacrypt PGP for Windows is the only real Windows PGP (and even it is partially a quickwin executable that looks like a DOS port). Still, it is much better from an interface standpoint than all the others. Please contact ViaCrypt for pricing (about $100 up), the latest platforms, and availablity at 800-536-2664 8:30am to 5:00pm MST, Monday - Friday. They accept VISA, MasterCard, AMEX and Discover credit cards. If you have further questions, please ask: Paul E.

Protect Your Privacy: A Guide for PGP Users by William Stallings Prentice Hall PTR ISBN 0-13-185596-4 US $19.95 This is a good technical manual for PGP for most users, and makes a better reference than the "official" documentation that comes with PGP. I recommend it highly. PGP: Pretty Good Privacy by Simson Garfinkel O'Reilly & Associates, Inc. ISBN 1-56592-098-8 US $24.95 E-Mail Security: How to Keep Your Electronic Mail Private "Covers PGP/PEM" by Bruce Schneier Wiley Publishing The Computer Privacy Handbook: A Practical Guide to E-Mail Encryption, Data Protection, and PGP PRivacy Software by Andre Bacard Peachpit Press ISBN 1-56609-171-3 US$24.95 800-283-9444 or 510-548-4393 This is an interesting book on the sociology and politics of privacy in the computer age as well as a practical manual on using PGP. Must reading for all members of Congress, presidential staff, members of Parliament, and ordinary citizens who would like to take reasonable steps to protect themselves from some forms of crime that have been made easy by technology.

Pretty Good Privacy is legal if you follow these rules: Don't export PGP from the USA except to Canada, or from Canada except to the USA, without a license. If you are in the USA, use either Viacrypt PGP (licensed for commercial use) or MIT PGP using RSAREF (limited to personal, noncommercial use). Outside of the USA, where RSA is not patented, you may prefer to use a version of PGP (2.6.i) that doesn't use RSAREF to avoid the restrictions of that license. If you are in a country where the IDEA cipher patent holds in software (including the USA, Canada, and some countries in Europe), make sure you are licensed to use the IDEA cipher commercially before using PGP commercially. (No separate license is required to use the freeware PGP for personal, noncommercial use). For direct IDEA licensing, contact Ascom Systec. Ascom Systec has taken over the distribution of IDEA licenses effective April 1, 1995. Erhard Widmer is the person responsible for the sales aspects, and Peter Hartmann is responsible for the technical aspects. They can be reached as follows: Erhard Widmer, Ascom Systec AG, Dep't. CMVV Phone ++41 64 56 59 83 Peter Hartmann, Ascom Systec AG, Dep't. CMN Phone ++41 64 56 59 45 Fax: ++41 64 56 59 90 e-mail: [I--A] at [ascom.ch] Mail address: Gewerbepark, CH-5506 Maegenwil (Switzerland) Don't sell PGP based on Philip Zimmermann's source code in North America unless you are reselling for Viacrypt (because they have an exclusive marketing agreement on Philip Zimmermann's copyrighted code). (Selling shareware/freeware disks or connect time is OK). This restriction might be lifted with PGP 3.0, since it is a complete rewrite by Colin Plumb. Distribution and use restrictions on that version are still to be determined. If you modify PGP (other than porting it to another platform or adapting it to another compiler), don't call it PGP (TM) or Pretty Good Privacy (TM) without Philip Zimmermann's permission. WHAT IS PHILIP ZIMMERMANN'S LEGAL STATUS? Philip Zimmermann is under investigation for alledged violation of export regulations, with a grand jury hearing evidence. There is speculation that the Feds are trying to make an example of Phil by with prolonged and expensive legal proceedings, thus reaping a reward of Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt to discourage development and use of strong crypto in the USA. Even though people in this country are considered innocent until proven guilty, there is a problem with the system in that it can take lots of money for innocent folks to defend themselves. Because of the broad implications for freedom, privacy, and the First Amendment of the U. S. Constitution in this case, I implore all of you who can to help out with Phil's rather significant legal and travel expenses involved in his defense. Phil is a nice guy with a wife and two children to support, and he has done a great deal in his PGP social activism to help all of us. To send a check or money order by mail, make it payable, NOT to Phil Zimmermann, but to "Philip L. Dubois, Attorney Trust Account." Mail the check or money order to the following address: Philip Dubois 2305 Broadway Boulder, CO USA 80304 (Phone #: 303-444-3885) To send a wire transfer, your bank will need the following information: Bank: VectraBank Routing #: 107004365 Account #: 0113830 Account Name: "Philip L. Dubois, Attorney Trust Account" To contribute using your credit card (secured with PGP), simply compose a message in plain ASCII text giving the following: the recipient ("Philip L. Dubois, Attorney Trust Account"); the bank name of your VISA or MasterCard; the name which appears on it (yours, hopefully :-)); a telephone number at which you can be reached in case of problems; the card number; date of expiry; and, most important, the amount you wish to donate. (Make this last item as large as possible.) Then use PGP to encrypt and ASCII-armor the message using Phil Dubois's public key, distributed with PGP 2.6.2. E-mail the output file to Phil Dubois ([d--bo--s] at [csn.org]). Please be sure to use a "Subject:" line reading something like "Phil Zimmermann Defense Fund" so he'll know to decrypt it right away.

The (prelim. draft) PGP 3.0 API is at: ftp://ftp.netcom.com/pub/dd/ddt/crypto/crypto_info/950212 pgp3spec.txt All comments on it for the PGP 3.0 API Team should be sent to: [p g p] at [lsd.com] WHAT OTHER FILE ENCRYPTION (DOS, MAC) TOOLS ARE THERE? PGP can do conventional encryption only of a file (-c) option, but you might want to investigate some of the other alternatives if you do this a lot. Alternatives include Quicrypt and Atbash2 for DOS, DLOCK for DOS & UNIX, Curve Encrypt (for the Mac), HPACK (many platforms), and a few others. Quicrypt is interesting in that it comes in two flavors: shareware exportable and registered secure. Atbash2 is interesting in that it generates ciphertext that can be read over the telephone or sent by Morse code. DLOCK is a no-frills strong encryption program with complete source code. Curve Encrypt has certain user-friendliness advantages. HPACK is an archiver (like ZIP or ARC), but with strong encryption. A couple of starting points for your search are: ftp://ftp.csn.net/mpj/qcrypt10.zip ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/pub/virus/crypt/file/ ftp://ftp.csn.net/mpj/I_will_not_export/crypto_???????/file/ (see ftp://ftp.csn.net/mpj/README for the ???????) ftp://ftp.miyako.dorm.duke.edu/mpj/crypto/file/ HOW DO I SECURELY DELETE FILES (DOS)? If you have the Norton Utilities, Norton WipeInfo is pretty good. I use DELETE.EXE in del110.zip, which is really good at deleting existing files, but doesn't wipe "unused" space. ftp://ftp.csn.net/mpj/public/del110.zip ftp://ftp.demon.co.uk/pub/ibmpc/security/realdeal.zip WHAT DO I DO ABOUT THE PASS PHRASE IN MY WINDOWS SWAP FILE? The nature of Windows is that it can swap any memory to disk at any time, meaning that all kinds of interesting things could end up in your swap file. ftp://ftp.firstnet.net/pub/windows/winpgp/wswipe.zip WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO PGPfone(tm)? It is still in the design stages, with a release target of August 1st. Get Nautilus, instead, for now. WHERE DO I GET NAUTILUS? Bill Dorsey, Pat Mullarky, and Paul Rubin have come out with a program called Nautilus that enables you to engage in secure voice conversations between people with multimedia PCs and modems capable of at least 9600 bps.

Rather than manually encrypting and decrypting files, it is sometimes easier (and therefore more secure, because you are more likely to use it) to use a utility that encrypts or decrypts files on the fly as you use them in your favorite applications. This also allows you to automatically encrypt temporary files generated by your applications if they are on the encrypted volume. http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut01/sfs.html ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/pub/virus/crypt/disk/ ftp://ftp.csn.net/mpj/I_will_not_export/crypto_???????/disk/ (see ftp://ftp.csn.net/mpj/README for the ???????) ftp://miyako.dorm.duke.edu/mpj/crypto/disk/ ftp://ftp.nic.surfnet.nl/surfnet/net-security/encryption/disk/ ftp://ftp.demon.co.uk/pub/ibmpc/secdev/secdev14.arj EMAIL/PGP LINKS http://cag-www.lcs.mit.edu/mailcrypt/ (EMACS LISP) WHERE IS PGP'S COMPETION? RIPEM is the second most popular freeware email encryption package. I like PGP better for lots of reasons, but if for some reason you want to check or generate a PEM signature, RIPEM is available at ripem.msu.edu. There is also an exportable RIPEM/SIG. ftp://ripem.msu.edu/pub/GETTING_ACCESS HOW DO I PUBLISH MY PGP PUBLIC KEY? Send mail to one of these addresses with the single word "help" in the subject line to find out how to use them. These servers sychronize keys with each other.

WHICH FAQ IS THE OFFICIAL ONE? The main alt.security.pgp FAQ is published by Jeff A. Licquia, [j--ic--i] at [prairienet.org]; and is available at ftp://ftp.prairienet.org/pub/providers/pgp/pgpfaq.txt This shorter FAQ just covers a few of the most frequent questions and points you to the main FAQ for more answers. This file is ftp://ftp.csn.net/mpj/getpgp.asc, and is available in two parts for more limited nets as ftp://ftp.csn.net/mpj/getpgp1.asc and ftp://ftp.csn.net/mpj/getpgp2.asc There are some other periodic FAQ-related postings, too, like the miniFAQ posted by Andre Bacard, which is more about promoting the use of PGP than where to get it or how to use it. FAQs are also posted to news.answers and alt.answers, and archived at rtfm.mit.edu. CAN I COPY AND REDISTRIBUTE THIS FAQ?
