The short answer is that I don't. Unfortunately the trick that PGP used of publishing it in a book and exporting that won't work anymore, because I believe the commerce department now says that source code printed in a book that can be scanned and OCRed is, in fact, "machine readable" and unexportable. I originally obtained SRA code from a University in Germany. I obtained my implementation of IDEA from PGP. In fact, I used idea.[ch] and #if 0'ed out stuff that's not needed. However, SRA is perfectly able to supply a compatable DES encryption key, so you can just add SRA to telnet and have SRA+DES. In fact, given that SRA isn't all that hard to break, one could argue that DES probably good enough (I hear it now -- if SRA isn't that hard to break, why bother? Answer: Because it's harder to break than plaintext. Factoring SRA would take a few days. Just watching for login: and password: takes nothing). I obtained the Makefiles for libtelnet, telnetd and telnet from the /usr/src/secure Attic and modified them so that they would enable encryption, authentication, SRA and DES (after adding SRA code, of course). I can discuss what I did with non-US citizens only in broad terms like the above. I can't assist and I can't provide source. The good news is that I believe the Bernstein case is headed finally for the Supreme Court and if all goes well source code may well be exempted from export regulations by deeming it protected speech.
