You haven't discovered yet that your next problem will be cryptographic key distribution. This is precisely the subject of my PhD Dissertation, to be completed this summer. I have designed an automatic key distribution protocol, perfectly suited to be included in what you are doing (and MANY other applications). It uses electronic mail to exchange protocol messages, rather than requiring a virtual connection as in the Internet. Jim <galvin@udel.edu> -- James M Galvin
