I have been reading some papers/articles on Kerberos and there are a
couple points on which I'm not clear. Would someone help me with the
following?
1. What are the advantages of having an Authentication Server (AS)
and Ticket-Granting Server (TGS) instead of having a single
server that does the authentication and ticket granting?
2. I understand that encryption algorithms cannot be exported out of
the USA, but does that also include binaries that perform the
encryption? For example, if I have an application that uses DES
encryption, may I legally send the application binaries to a
person/company in Europe?
Thanks for any help.
Jeff
