I spoke to a real live person at RSA myself some months back, and the situation is this: Crypto is restricted in the US. The only crypto which it is legal to use (we are talking for SSL here - no nitpicking, please) is either the package produced by RSA or an algorithm that a programmer develops

Definitely confirm everything that I am telling you. RSAREF I believe can be legally used for non-commercial efforts within the US. Try searching RSA on google.com and check the statements concerning US use at the mod_ssl site and modssl. If I get a few moments I'll look for some links. parker

You guys probably have this figured out already but ... As Emile stated it's the RSA that's a problem for US users. If you compile from source you can't use the RSA algorythym with your SSL enabled apache. A solution that's mentioned in the mod_ssl pages, I think that's where I've read this, is t

I'm not sure what a écrit is but I do know that I'm new to compiling and building software as opposed to using RPM's. It would make things easier if there was a source RPM for the MP that I could use in the US. If not, I will figure out how to compile the stuff myself. Thanks, Derek --- Ronan-
