   I've been trying to find out why I can't get the crypt application
   directly from Sun for months now.  All I want to do is encrypt a file
   with a password for safe keeping and transmitting over unsecure
   networks.  The libraries are there and I suppose I could write a 
   program to do it, and even the Sun man page talks about the application
   but where the hell is the damn thing?  Sorry, but it seems like such
   a simple thing to ask of a vendor that I've lost all my patience.

I could send you one if you weren't in the US.  Unfortunately, your
government's ITAR silliness forbids you to import them without a license.

(At last, I get my own back!!!   8-)

Sorry.
