(cpx) Re: Why can't I get PGP from MIT (fwd)

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."
*or* just get it from ftp.dsi.unimi.it! Use the ftp INDEX command upon being connected. Most of US's crypto software, in fact, has already been exported to Europe and is *freely* available at ftp.dsi.unimi.it Ciao, David
