System name:		geskekelud.mit.edu
Type and version:	Sun-Blade-100 9.1.14 (with mkserv)
Display type:		ifb

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager:		sawfish

What were you trying to do?
	unzip a password protected file.  

What's wrong:
       It says:
   skipping: SB04A.jpg               encrypted (not supported)

What should have happened:
	It should have prompted me for a password, and then unzipped
	the files.  

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	"man unzip": 

     Encrypted archives are fully supported by Info-ZIP software, but
     due to United States export restrictions, the encryption and
     decryption sources are not packaged with the regular unzip and
     zip distributions.  Since the crypt sources were written by
     Europeans, however, they are freely available at sites throughout
     the world; see http://www.cdrom.com/pub/infozip/doc/WHERE or the
     WHERE file in any Info-ZIP source or binary distribution for
     locations both inside and outside the US.

(It's very embarassing to have to use my Windows box for something
 that Athena can't do)
