Cyberpunks,
Que pasa? My name is D and I am new to the list...I will most likely just be lurking for a while, till I get a visit from the Duel Pentium II 266, 128megs of RAM, running Linux on one PII and Win98 on the Other Fariy...She should be along by the end of the summer...
Hey, if you're a BeOS developer (and you can become one for free,) United Micro will give you a discount on a dual PII-266 system w/ 128 Megs. I have just such a beast, and it ain't bad. SMP rocks. Haven't tried to put Windows on it, though.
Anywhoo, the point of the subject is that at this point and time I don't have net access so I was hopeing someone out there would send me the FAQ that is talked of in the welcome message. It can be found at:
anonymous ftp to rtfm.mit.edu:pub/usenet-by-group/sci.crypt
Well sir, there's about 4 FAQs there, one of which is in 10 parts. What do you want? There's the Cryptography FAQ (the big one), the snake-oil FAQ, the RSA-Cryptography-today FAQ, and the SSL talk list FAQ. The 10 parts of the big one: Overview Public-key Cryptography Net Etiquette Digital Signatures Basic Cryptology Technical Miscellany Mathematical Cryptology Other Miscellany Product Ciphers References They range in size from 1-20 k, and ~100 k for the whole thing. -Xcott ,oooooooo8 o ooooo@math.niu.edu -- http://www.math.niu.edu/~caj/ o888' `88 ,888. 888 888 ,8'`88. 888 "In Geometry, there is no royal hyperspace 888o. ,oo ,8oooo88. 888 wormhole." --Buck Euclid in the 25th century `888oooo88 o88o o888o 888 ____________________8o888'_________________________________________________
