Jason Penney) Newsgroups: comp.protocols.kerberos Subject: Kerberos and non-USA Customers of Ultrix 4.0 Message-ID: <1991Apr5.231543.21807@slc.com> Date: 5 Apr 91 23:15:43 GMT Organization: Servio Corporation Lines: 19 I understand that Ultrix 4.0 and the new release of AIX for the IBM RS/6000 are going to support kerberos authentication protocols. Seeing as the export of DES outside of the US is restricted, and bones.tar.Z does not offer an alternative encryption strategy, a real question arises: exactly WHAT are these vendors doing for their non-USA customers? On a related issue, if I link kerberos (and DES) libraries into my executable, am I barred from shipping that executable outside of the US? Please reply by e-mail. If enough people show interest, I will post a summary. Thank you. -- D.
