Bones (K4) has been reconstructed in Australia (i'am not sure how compares to
the real thing) with DES and auth calls replaced by non-US software.

It's called e-Bones ? can be  found on

	gondwana.ecr.Mu.OZ.AU	[128.250.1.63]

A similar service was also provided for Xdm in X11R5 for DES encryption,
but then again DES is looking just that little bit weaker now.
(suggest you have a look at the lastest comp.risks to see what the UK 
equivalent to the NSA is telling the UK banks not to with DES)
