As far as I can tell, Cox stopped sniping bittorrent and gnutella connections with reset packets the day or the day after I told them that I'd expose their practices. Maybe they started again afterwards. Or maybe they only stopped corrupting my and my friends' traffic. If encrypting your connections gives a speed boost, then maybe some more investigating needs to be done. > I'm sure it is also only a matter of time before > Cox gets around this if this is really helping. I doubt it. Provided that bittorrent end to end encryption means something akin to Diffie-Hellman key exchange at the start of each connection, there are two ways "around" this, that I can think of, both of which suck for Cox: 1. Content-based whitelisting, meaning you can't make any kind of connection in or out unless Cox can identify the type of traffic by its content. If Cox can't determine the content of the connection because it's encrypted and Cox has not broken the encryption, then Cox terminates the connection. This would mean lots of work for Cox, and lots of support calls from lots of unhappy customers ("My streaming video never works!" "I'm sorry, but we haven't programmed our systems to track all of your streaming video viewing yet. You'll have to wait."). 2. A man in the middle attack, meaning Cox decides to break the encryption, which is a mostly straightforward process in this case. This creates several interesting problems. The first is that Cox would have to attempt such an attack on each unidentifiable connection ("Oh, that's not HTTP. Better mess with it."). The result would be that any connection using a protocol that Cox's system isn't set up to interpret and that is NOT using bittorrent end to end encryption (think multiplayer games, NFS, whatever) would almost certainly be corrupted. This is maybe worse for the end user than whitelisting. The second is that provided Cox wants to keep its activities secret (as seems to be the case so far), it would have to throttle encrypted bittorrent connections instead of terminating them entirely. That would mean that a Cox computer would have to participate in each encrypted connection from start to finish. Let's be conservative and say that there are 5,000 bittorrent connections in and out of humboldt county via Cox's network at any given time. Then Cox's servers would have to perform the encrypting and decrypting work normally parcelled out to 10,000 home PCs continuously.* Eric *P.S. There is a neat game to be played here. Suppose that Cox can purchase enough computing power to do the job (hardware+software+electricity +maintenance), and that the massive P2P throttling system pays for itself in bandwidth savings. Then suppose peer to peer developers start layering symmetric ciphers. Then the CPUs participating in the peer to peer network will be a little more loaded down, but Cox will need a much larger throttle farm to do the job. Will P2P users not be able to participate in the network because they don't have fast enough computers to do all the encryption? Or will Cox decide that the throttle farm costs more to operate than they are saving in bandwidth?

Force GPG to write a file?
Hi all, Last question :) By default, gpg will refuse to write to a file (myfile.gpg) that already exists. Is there a way to change this behaviour? I am running gpg on batch mode on a server to encrypt a database before downloading. So I need to temporarily store the encrypted file on the server. There are two ways to accomplish this: 1) Give Apache write permission to an entire directory, so it can add and delete files in that directory. 2) Give Apache write permission to just one file (myfile.gpg) and keep overwriting every time I download a new encrypted backup. Right now I'm doing (1) but I guess that (2) would be better. But I can only do (2) if I can confince gpg to overwrite an existing file. I looked at the man page and FAQs and I couldn't find this information. Thank you for your help. Cheers, Daniel. -- /\/`) http://opendocumentfellowship.org /\/_/ /\/_/ A life?

[GPGOL] No keys found
Hello! I have just installed the latest WinPT and GPGOL on a Windows XP SP2, with Outlook 2003. The installation was successful and I have created my own set of keys and imported some friends public keys. In WinPT I can sign and encrypt with my key and I can encrypt using my friends public keys. BUT, in Outlook/GPGOL I create a new mail, select "Sign Message with GPG" and press Send. I now get an dialog, "Secret Key Dialog" which has a DropDown control that's EMPTY! If I instead select "encrypt message with GPG" I get "Recipient Dialog", and my recipients are in the "Recipient which were not found" edit field. So I'm guessing that GPGOL can't find my keys! I have checked preferences for GPG and GPGOL and they are all pointing to the directory where pubkeys.gpg and seckeys.gpg are.

Re: Passphrase on the command line
Here is my idiom; checking for success is vital. See openssh documentation for details on key-based shell access. Test for transparent access, if using gpg, test for undisturbed encryption with --batch. You can pipe the dump (or tar) to gpg instead of gzip. File size will be reduced. The dd command can also hit a tape, though this isn't always practical with nightly cron stuff.

They don't have to do any crypto at all, or inspect any packets deeply. Throttling rules would be set up that say "hey, here's one client getting data at high speed from a bunch of other folks simultaneously, and sending data quickly upstream to a bunch of people at the same time." Such a rule would be fairly straightforward to implement by tracking a few simple counters per client. I imagine Packeteer and the other traffic-shaping vendors already have something along those lines available. Such traffic-pattern throttling wouldn't step on VPN or SSL connections, as they're typically from a single host to single host. Basically, BitTorrent has a very unique traffic pattern that makes the encryption at best a temporary roadblock to traffic shapers. The vast majority of BT traffic is from copyright violators, so it's not like the imapcted users will complain about the throttling in any official capacity. As for the impact on "legitimate" BT traffic like Linux distros... well, I'm sure Cox doesn't care one bit. It's not like the Ubuntu project is going to sue Cox over BT traffic shaping. -- RPM ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

Re: Change PIN on OpenPGP-Card with Cherry SmartTerminal ST-1044

I have never tried that board with the PCSC driver. It works fine when using the internal GnuPG driver. I sorry, that you burned your card. In general it is always advisable to take some caution when using a new reader device. And you should always start with the regular PIN, this gives you more tries in case something went wrong. Using gpg with the option "--debug 2048" will show details of the card communication. Could the next revision of the OpenPGP card spec (and the next version of the primary implemetation) provide an [optional] command that resets the card to factory condition? (Wipes the key, and then resets the pin counts. Perhaps itwould only work if PIN counter have reached maximum. [At which point the key on the card is for all intents and purposes dead anyway as it is no longer usable, so the user should be able to wipe the card clean. It would save a user's investment.]) ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
encrypted mail and gmail / remote
hello group - apologies for the newbie questions. i am wondering if there are any webmail services that can decrypt email, if i somehow inform of my PGP key? also, i am travelling without knowing my pgp key. is this somehow centrally registered, in a way that i can download the key, and use a command line app to decrypt messages sent to me? i guess only the public key is available on the public key registries (if it works that way). thanks! /dc -- ___ David "DC" Collier US 1-415-283-7742 [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype: callto://d3ntaku http://www.pikkle.com +81 (0)80 6521 9559 http://charajam.com 【★キャラ♪ジャム★】 人気キャラとJ-POP最新ヒット曲を自分で組み合わせて 待受Flashや着Flashを作っちゃおう! ___ ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
Re: encrypted mail and gmail / remote
I noticed this plugin for squirrelmail if you wanted to do it on your own server: http://www.squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=153 Aside from that there are a few services around, like hushmail.com that'll do what you want.
