5/6 /usr/local/bin/premail is installed.
It connects to the "nym" remailer.
It requires pgp2.6 to work.
The nym server uses a 2048 bit key.
Ours only supports 1024 bit keys.

Pick your RSA key size:
1) 512 bits- Low commercial grade, fast but less secure
2) 768 bits- High commercial grade, medium speed, good security
3) 1024 bits- "Military" grade, slow, highest security
Choose 1, 2, or 3, or enter desired number of bits: 2048
Generating an RSA key with a 2048-bit modulus.
--I dont know who the fuck you are, but 1) you didnt mail root
and 2) you arent even smart enough to read the fucking directions
that pgp gives you on a fucking silver platter. --Jon
\_ Valium, homeboy. He probably meant that pgp supports a
maximum 1024 bit keylength. -John
\_ but it doesn't.
\_ Yes, I know that, and you know that, but it didn't
show up in the options and he was probably tired
and didn't think that far. No reason to go apeshit.
-John "fuck"
\_ wierd. tried again, it worked now. BUt it
failed before, complaining aobut keylength.
\_Why is soda stuck on 2.6.2? PGP 5 is available for *NIX, with 6
available within the month. 6 supports 4096-bit keys, which if you
read Cryptonomicon (Neal Stephenson's new book) is secure for 100 years
and may even be suitable to keep secure until men are no longer
capable of evil! (forever). As far as I know, the book does not have
a protagonist who attended UCB in the 90's and studied CS (as snow
crash did) --cody
