i have uploaded pgp compiled for a VAX running VAX/VMS to the cypherpunks ftp site. here is a copy of the readme file i included with it. i should note that the reason i did this was primarily to provide pgp to people who do not have access to c compilers or a PC/DOS machine. this is, of course, not meant to substitute for checking the source and compiling pgp yourself. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- VAXPGP262.TAR.Z is a compressed tar file containing the following docs.

THESE CHANGES HAVE NO AFFECT ON PGP, THEY ONLY AFFECT THE CREATION OF THE RSA LIBRARY THAT IS DISTRIBUTED WITH PGP!! changes were to made to the rsabuild.com file, these were: 1) commented out: $ call compile md2c 2) commented out: $ call compile md5c other than these, no changes were made to the *.com files. i have tested this copy of pgp and it has worked perfectly with key generation and file signing as measured by generating keys on the VAX and then signing a file on the VAX followed by checking the signatures and key on a SUN using pgp2.6.2 that was compiled there. if you have a problem, please write me at: finerty@msscc.med.utah.edu pfinerty@nyx10.cs.du.edu pfinerty@seattleu.edu my pgp key is available via keyserver or finger. - -patrick finerty, jr. - -- patrick finerty -- finerty@msscc.med.utah.edu pfinerty@bach.seattleu.edu pfinerty@nyx10.cs.du.edu U of Utah biochem grad student/slave in the Bass lab easily found at (801) 585-3110 almost anytime. rm 207 wintrobe. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBLvERgU3Qo/lG0AH5AQEzbwP/UItMKPKv1dZ8g39aaX6qoQWRsd1tR5ko fIQ65i73qECD0swWxKAEUBKOz1bUo1tPr4u4cEvt3v4JYaUkrKaWZ58H9HkF7v47 SlDzZDHnZytcV1NzjEFsDYLMLFjuE6uMpGK9OjDP/cH4Z+PFkfVN6TNv4g6GL+Pa obY4/vId8sM= =nMyH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- patrick finerty -- finerty@msscc.med.utah.edu pfinerty@bach.seattleu.edu pfinerty@nyx10.cs.du.edu U of Utah biochem grad student/slave in the Bass lab easily found at (801) 585-3110 almost anytime. rm 207 wintrobe.
