ssh-agent add PKCS#11 support
Hello, PKCS#11 is a standard API interface that can be used in order to access cryptographic tokens. You can find the specification at http://www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/node.asp?id=2133, most smartcard and other cryptographic device vendors support PKCS#11, opensc also provides PKCS#11 interface. I can easily make the scard.c, scard-opensc.c and ssh-agent.c support PKCS#11. PKCS#11 is much more portable, standard, used standard than the current o...

Cryptography patents (was: openssl lib question.)
...on this, of course). Specifically, DES, 3DES, and SHA-1 are US Government standards and (even if still under patent) are in general usable worldwide without royalties. RSAREF should no longer be required in any environment, as the primary RSA public key algorithm is now unencumbered: http://www.rsasecurity.com/news/pr/000906-1.html (In fact, if you're using RSAREF and haven't applied patches, you may be vulnerable to specific attacks.) The only patent-encumbered algorithm of which I'm aware which is included in any SSH implementation is IDEA-- which is very specifically not included in Op...

Samba and the use of smart cards for authentication
Hi, We have a windows based network. Now we would like to secure all the computers with the use of smart cards (so that people can log on with a smart card). For testing purposes we bought some card readers and now we are trying to set up a testing lab. First problem we ran in to is that we would need W2K Server for Active Directory and the MS CA. Until now we used Samba for print and file

Rsync / SSH / Cygwin .. permission problems..
I am attempting to use rsync to "mirror" data between several windows 2000 and windows XP systems. I am a UNIX person by nature, so decided the easiest way to go about doing this would be to use Cygwin with cron and ssh running as services, then run the rsync connection nightly through cron. Cygwin is installed on both systems and works perfectly. OpenSSH is installed and running,
