I believe I had a problem when I wanted to get PGP coming from internexus.net (New Jersey). I just e-mailed them about it and I think they just added the site to their 'acceptable' list. I did a traceroute to why.net and noticed that it is very close to me, coming off of SprintNet... probably the same situation.
Internexus.net has been added to the list. The heuristic that the MIT site enforces is as follows: o To get access you must properly answer some questions regarding export control law and licensing. o Your host must have an "inverse" DNS mapping so we can learn its name. o Your host's name must end in either ".EDU", ".COM", ".MIL", ".GOV", ".US", or ".CA". *or* Be on our exception list. All the ".NET's" and ".ORG's" need to be "excepted." Maintaining the exception list has turned out to be a serious problem. I receive roughly 20 messages a day from people needed to be added. To make matters worse the exception list has to be maintained in two different locations in two different formats. I just broke down today and automated the management of the lists. Unfortunately the only thing I can do for people whose machines do not have an inverse DNS mapping is to send them personal copies via e-mail. However, I have been too swamped to do this. I am looking into alternative approaches of guarding the FTP site (possibly doing a traceroute or something similar) in a better way that still meets the requirements of maintaining export restrictions. Please remember that I maintain the MIT FTP site in my all too rare spare time. Thank you. -Jeff -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBMPBCFcUtR20Nv5BtAQEUhAQAnzPlxiXo33DqX0X1m39Xh1I0e7ND332n L4vZlf7T3VDU0jYv1IB/6D3aNvMXo0l8JpsXIxqzaxP5nYgVgm1idx06IgY7T1rJ vVRCIqfFleUFPTS/ndo7jznzr+w7Dq1+5wRU2Oa+ymRICBNHCeEnaxcmx3zs4R6a VEBmc/6w8TQ= =vFSt -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
