That is not the information that I have, unless they have changed the rules substantially since I last looked into this subject. So far as I'm aware, only two countries prohibit the importation of crypto; France is one and I don't remember the other. There was a very heated discussion in this regard at the last IETF on the question of whether IP6 should include as a mandatory facility some sort of strong encryption. -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
