4. The value of my holdings doesn't fluctuate as it does with e-Gold. If I have $100 in PayPal, it remains as $100. And I don't have to calculate grams to dollars.

[e-gold-list] Re: crypto question
cross-posting this (my reply) post to e-gold list for interested parties. jay w. I have a friend who is designing me a software system to help protect my e-gold numbers etc. Encryption/Decription will be realized through CryptoAPI. Can anyone tell me if this is a valid and strong encryption method? What are its advantages and disavantages? -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- hi justine, my thoughts, for what they are worth: disadvantages: - no peer review of software for vulnerabilites. crypto software is easy to do badly. - no widespread use of one-of-a-kind application, so weaknesses may go undetected - similar to above point. - CryptoAPI implies Windows OS which is likely the most easily targeted OS available. advantages: - very small user base (1?) may not make it worth attacking to bad guy. - in theory, the CryptoAPI should provide tested algorithms under its hood. i would suggest you consider: - migrating to a different OS. if that is just not possible, at least migrate away from IE/Outlook on Windows. - educate yourself on computer security. i will quote an entire post of mine below as a starting point in this regard. - consider an existing proven product for the application, e.g.: http://www.counterpane.com/passsafe.html http://www.pgp.com/display.php?pageID=32#PGP Personal for Windows 8.0 best, jay w.

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- hi marco, by design, traceroutes/pings and other ICMP type packets will not be able to reach e-gold machines. that is not unusual and not indicative of a problem. (this was the 3rd option mentioned in a third parties message in the original message). the reason your particular problem seems to be weird or specific to data from e-gold, is that traffic from other locations *can* get thru to your server. there are many sites out there that allow you to traceroute/ping etc. and at the time of our investigation for your problem, they *could* get to your server. e-gold *could not*. tracerouting showed a difference somewhere in the .it TLD which led to our conclusion that a server there had special knowledge aka a misconfiguration with respect to some inbound IP ranges. i will throw in this bone, if someone on the list offers a suggestion or idea that directly leads to marco solving his problem, i'll spend you 10 grams of e-gold. go get the bone!

[e-gold-list] Re: http://mobile.e-gold.com/wml/
hi martijn, thanks for the notes regarding the mobile e-gold site - comments inline below... I am able to view the options on the main menu but when I go to 'Access Account' it pops up with some vague error about the connection. I assume it switches to SSL there. Anyway, I can't access it. yes - that would be when it switches to secure mode. some providers will not support that. It might be my phone. On the other hand I have surfed a lot of WAP sites and had no probs. there. as a test you could direct your phone to: http://mobile.e-gold.com/wml/ and then https://mobile.e-gold.com/wml/ and see if the latter works or not. if not, most likely your provider is not setup to proxy SSL connections. Also, I think the interface it rather unituitive. I need to press the option button all the time. Even to continue after the welcome to e-gold screen. (There is no logo or image on the splash screen, is this correct?) the PCS/HDML site (http://mobile.e-gold.com/) does have a logo on the opening phone screen - but we do not have one on the WAP/WML page. the former is supported by more of the phones we test against than the latter so we are weaker in the layout and navigation on the WAP/WML side. we'll use your comments to try and improve that. ...

Jay, where did you get a Segway? i just got to take it for a test drive - they didn't happen to have one in the colour i wanted ;) now i'm going to tangentially tie this story to e-gold. the Segways were demonstrated at the FIRST (1) (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) national robotics competition held at Epcot. this organization was started 10 years ago by Dean Kamen (3), inventor of the Segway (2), to promote engineering to high school kids. they plan to have FIRST teams from every US high school in 5 more years. the FIRST competition tries to mirror the engineering environment of real world businesses. teams have a defined problem to solve in a fixed amount of time using fixed resources. teams form alliances with other teams to compete against each other. a lot of innovative ideas pop up each year - this year it seemed to be the tether concept: robots would release a long tape measure type device to extend their robot into a remote zone to score more points. during his speech yesterday at the FIRST event, dean mentioned exchanging Gold for goods and ideas for ideas. dean has also started his own currency for his 'nation' of North Dumpling (4). he carries one of its bills, with a value of Pi, in his wallet. anyone out there with some North Dumpling notes that wants to exchange them for e-gold speak up! jay w.

there is not currently a generic email transaction notification option for e-gold account holders. Um... ok, thanks.

SMSgrams are unique numbers sent via SMS. each SMSgrams message represents a fine weight of gold. users get SMSgrams online via web browser by spending e-gold to the service using the e-gold SCI. they can then initiate SMS messages to their phone from the service. the service also accepts SMS messages at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you have SMSgrams on your phone you can cash them out by sending them to that address. it looks at the sender and uses the e-gold automation interface to spend to the associated SMSgram users account. you can also just forward SMSgrams to your friends whereupon they could cash them out or keep them handy. (maybe there would be a [EMAIL PROTECTED] SMS address to stash your SMSgrams without cashing them out so that the orignal sender couldn't just cash it before you.) the service keeps track of the outstanding SMSgrams and knows which ones have been cashed. it performs all the double-spend logic associated with copyable digital tokens. it has gold on hand backing all the outstanding SMSgrams. anyway, thats a quick thought. somebody build it and i will use it :) jay w.

[e-gold-list] Re: Turing (ex) idea
hi jeff, interesting idea - my thoughts on an alternative to the turing number are that it needs to provide around 1 out of 1 or higher odds against random guessing. so a form with a drop down list would need to have 1 choices to provide such. the 6 digit number e-gold uses provides around 1 out of a million odds of guessing. some sites use distorted english words on a background - this is probably superior from the random guess angle but may be more prone to user mis-entry. maybe a way to do your drop down would be to have javascripted heirarchical menu selection similar to e-bay category selection. animal/plant/mineral - dog/cat/aardvark/snail cactus/oak/fern pebble/rebar/engine etc. to arrive at 1 incorrect selections. also some possibilites having to do with persistence of human vision, and animation are possible... how about using i ching hexagrams, or selecting the most likely composer of a .wav motif or painter of a few displayed stroke. yeah, right. :) jay w.

i can't stand the dearth of replies! see: http://store.gemplus.com select software solutions, possibly you could try the Kit, GemSAFE Enterprise Workstation 2.21 Standard Cryptography Serial Port Reader though i haven't messed with that particular item. what you fill find is that there are a variety of standards involved in smartcard usage in this area. Microsoft products like to use something called CryptoAPI. Netscape supports PKCS 11 for similar functions. these are the APIs that the software part of your smartcard solution needs to support in order for your browser to talk to the smartcard and use it as a client certificate store. you will also see mention of other specifications relating to smartcards and APIs - OpenCARD, JavaCard, PC/SC. i think it is fair to say that the abundance of specifications has slowed acceptance of smartcards. to keep this post e-gold related - i offer 1 gram of e-gold to each person who writes a worthy review of her experience in using a smartcard/token with client certificates. jay w.

[e-gold-list] Re: [e-gold-tech] Verifiy the site hitting you is www.e-gold.com ???
hi gary,
the exact logic depends on the language you are programming in,
the architecture of your application, your database tables etc...
in an ASP/pseudocode you might do something like:
0. see if the request is coming from an e-gold box:
if InStr(Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR"), "206.102.213.")
Then Keep on Trucking, that's an e-gold.com IP address
1. check to see if expected fields are present (line wrapped for readability)
if Request("PAYEE_ACCOUNT") ""
and Request("PAYMENT_AMOUNT") ""
and Request("PAYMENT_UNITS") ""
and Request("PAYMENT_METAL_ID") ""
and Request("PAYMENT_BATCH_NUM") ""
and Request("PAYER_ACCOUNT") ""
and Request("PAYMENT_ID") ""
and Len(Request("V2_HASH")) = 32
then Keep On Trucking, Fields Present
2. compute and check the MD5 hash for a match
checkstring = Request("PAYMENT_ID") ":"
checkstring = checkstring Request("PAYEE_ACCOUNT") ":"
checkstring = checkstring Request("PAYMENT_AMOUNT") ":"
checkstring = checkstring Request("PAYMENT_UNITS") ":"
checkstring = checkstring Request("PAYMENT_METAL_ID") ":"
checkstring = checkstring Request("PAYMENT_BATCH_NUM") ":"
checkstring = checkstring Request("PAYER_ACCOUNT") ":"
checkstring = checkstring "AABBCCDDEEFF1122334455667788" ' (your merchant
passphrase hash)
ComputedHash = CalculateMD5HashFunction(checkstring)
ExpectedHash = Request("V2_HASH")
if ComputedHash = ExpectedHash then Keep On Trucking, Hash is good
3. depending on your application, at this point you could check for the existence of a
pending transaction you are waiting for payment notification on...
query pending transactions from database for match with PAYMENT_ID,
PAYMENT_AMOUNT, etc.
if yes, continue on and process this transaction as being paid.
that's the general idea, there are different and better ways to do each step for
a specific language/application.

Thus, number of funded accounts 60,766 means 60,766 with AT LEAST SOME e-gold in them? Let us know! Suggest where it says "0 - 1 oz." it should read "under one ounce", because "0 - 1 oz" suggests that includes accounts that are totally empty (which would be quite different) -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: PGP Personal Privacy 6.5.3 iQEVAwUBOlffkMyM0YPqVE7FAQFW4wf/ZS5Oa1S1wlVKLayrU2oS0UO7/RCc517Y iXd3W9QvEnmuIpzBqti5fspr5avjEoGNj8XGd7sZmJAdcRYj5Nj4SCdayZx9zEfH C+VqkBNHgThlPAhTtZU8zxa17ag/MVq1X2Cwy2xvN3dib3fAfoSnowpopJS9yHPi hO/tx4Dgaj98AdvgYgMJOg/2frG9gbz5g2Sf1sUjRcoi4RhKGnZZ4gMvdyJqooiR QMNhW0+QgL2U8LoTk5Ukllrd5HeSdgvJb141XAu6a63PkiXtnvLayo4sZHy4MC3X ReoPgywSVmI63ayx+10AF1yIdeQyfn+CmZWnhk7L/DSiVQ7BGW6OmQ== =D5fx -END PGP SIGNATURE- --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[e-gold-list] Re: [e-gold-tech] spend using confirm.asp
sidd, a bit of a guess, but check to see if the form submit you're doing is a GET instead of a POST...if so try POST. jay w. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sidd wrote: Hi All, When I use the confirm.asp URL and fill in the optional "memo" field, I find that all white space is removed. Thus "Thanks for dinner" submitted in the form field returns "Thanksfordinner" when I view the payment history on the e-gold site. Has anyone else noticed this?

[e-gold-list] Re: spends on egold using palm
hi jp, according to "what's new" on the e-gold site: e-gold at FC99 ... After the conference cryptographer Ian Goldberg, who ported SSL (secure sockets layer) encryption to the 3com "Palm Pilot.", made the first known e-gold payment from a pilot! i used proxinet on my pilot to do a spend once - it wasn't pretty to look at html formatting wise, but it did work. if you can get a wap/hdml/wml browser *that does SSL* for the palm pilot then you should be able to hit http://mobile.e-gold.com and access it that way... maybe one of these will do the trick: http://www.wapguide.com/wapguide/ http://www.4thpass.com/KBrowser/index.html jrw Hey --- what is happening about using PALM to use e-gold? Is it possible to do an e-gold spend using a palm as yet? --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
