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.
