I'm looking for information on the Blacker Front End.  (The BFE is an
A1-level crypto box for TCP/IP.)  I've seen the document in the DDN
Protocol Handbook; I'm looking for an operational overview.  There was
a paper presented at the 1988 IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy by
C. Weissman; unfortunately, the text was not received in time to be
included in the proceedings.  If anyone has that paper, or other,
similar papers, or a pointer to Weissman, I'd appreciate it.  I'm
neither eligible for, nor interested in, any classified material.
