(i.e. BSDI 1.1) Well, correct me if I`m wrong but don`t you just have to copy libdescrypt* to libcrypt* and then freebsd uses des as the standard encryption method? As for exporting cryptography I think the whole thing is very silly - If I want des I`ll download it from the states (To the UK) :P~~~ Regards, Trefor S.
