McCarthy" <lmccarth@ducie.cs.umass.edu> ...The only solution I can imagine is to keep a notebook computer running Linux at work, and dial in to the DECstation five feet away from my desk at work. I've no idea how to convince the tech staff here to add a dedicated phone line to my lab for this purpose. Any better suggestions on using PGP safely during the workday ?

Well, for one thing you don't need a phone line in your scenario. You can probably just connect the serial port of your laptop to one of the decstation serial ports, using a null-modem cable (pins 2 and 3 swapped; 4 jumpered to 5; 6, 8, and 20 jumpered to each other; and 7 passed through, or something like that) But I agree that the idea of buying a laptop so you can use PGP at work is odious. There must be a better way. tw
