Re: HOW MUCH CODE DID 'CYPHERPUNK' TIM MAY EVER WRITE?

I recently upgraded to a dual pentium II 400 and I wanted to take advantage of the 64 bit capability (2x32 = 64, right) so I've just finished the first beta of the AOL 64 bit port. The question of Tim May's contribution to cypherpunks keeps coming up. I noticed from the comments that the original AOL8 code base was written by Tim May. I hope that clears that up. -- an anonymous AOL64 beta user

Nortel "Entrust"
by Jonathon Fletcher 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Can anyone tell me anything about a product called "Entrust", by Nortel (Northern Telecom). The notes talk about the software using DES ("which employs a 56-bit key") so I guess it's single DES, not triple DES. It also mentions a proprietary algorithm called CAST. Is this worthy of further investigation, or is it suspect ? What is CAST, and would it be classed as snake oil ? Please cc to me in mail - I have a little trouble dealing with the volume here.
