WHERE TO GET THE PRETTY GOOD PRIVACY PROGRAM (PGP)
(Last modified: 11 August 1994 by Mike Johnson)
WHAT IS THE LATEST VERSION?
There is more than one latest version. Pick one or more of the following
that best suits your computer, patent restrictions, and export restrictions.
Some countries (like France) may also restrict import or even use of strong
cryptography like PGP.

Note: there are other versions available, but these are either old, or
outside of the mainstream PGP project. Look for new versions from one of
three sources: Viacrypt (Commercial), MIT (North American freeware), or
[email protected] (the unofficially non-designated holder of the unofficial
international version that parallels what Philip Zimmermann and the rest of
the PGP development team is doing in the USA.
Note that the MIT PGP 2.6 is illegal to export from the USA or Canada, but
using it outside of the USA and Canada for noncommercial use is not illegal
in most countries. In spite of the best efforts of MIT and the other primary
developers and distributors of PGP not to violate the International Traffic
in Arms Regulations, MIT PGP 2.6 is available on some of the same sites
listed for PGP 2.6ui, below. The noncommercial use restriction comes from
both the RSAREF license and the patent on the IDEA cipher in Europe and North
America.
WHAT IS ALL THIS NONSENSE ABOUT EXPORT CONTROLS?
For a detailed rant, get ftp://ftp.csn.net/mpj/cryptusa.zip
The practical meaning, until the law is corrected to make sense, is that you
are requested to get PGP from sites outside of the USA and Canada if you are
outside of the USA and Canada. If you are in France, I understand that you
aren't even supposed import it. Other countries may be worse.
WHAT IS THE "TIME BOMB" IN MIT PGP 2.6?
As a concession to the RSA patent holders (in return for endorsement of the
legality of the freeware MIT PGP 2.6), MIT placed an inducement in MIT PGP
2.6 to encourage upgrade from the alledgedly patent-infringing PGP 2.3a to
the MIT version. The nature of this inducement is a change in a packet ID
byte that causes PGP 2.3a and earlier to reject messages created by MIT PGP
2.6 after 1 September 1994. Altering MIT PGP 2.6 to bypass this annoyance
(though technically an easy change to the LEGAL_KLUDGE), invalidates the
blessing of Public Key Partners on the licence of MIT PGP 2.6. Therefore, it
is a bad idea. On the other hand, it is trivial to hack PGP 2.3a to accept
these packets, and that (plus a few other bug fixes) is essentially what PGP
2.6ui is. None of the versions of PGP greater than 2.3 have problems reading
the old packet ID values, so for maximum compatibility, the ideal is to write
the old value and accept either value.
Unfortunately, this time bomb has a negative effect on Viacrypt PGP 2.4, as
well, which never infringed on anyone's patents. Viacrypt's solution was to
issue PGP 2.7, which, by default acts just like MIT PGP 2.6, but has a
config.txt option (explained in the release) that allows compatibility with
both PGP 2.4 and PGP 2.6. Naturally, this also allows compatibility with PGP
2.3a.
The time bomb is annoying for those who still wish to use PGP 2.3a, and for
those who use Viacrypt PGP 2.4 and don't want to spend US$10 to upgrade to
Viacrypt PGP 2.7, but considering the magnitude of the concession made by
Public Key Partners in legitimizing the freeware PGP for use in the USA, it
was worth it.
ARE MY KEYS COMPATIBLE WITH THE OTHER PGP VERSIONS?
If your RSA key modulus length is less than or equal to 1024 bits (I don't
recommend less, unless you have a really slow computer and little patience),
and if your key was generated in the PKCS format, then it will work with any
of the mainstream PGP versions (PGP 2.3a, Viacrypt PGP 2.4, MIT PGP 2.6, PGP
2.6ui, or Viacrypt PGP 2.7). If this is not the case, you really should
generate a new key that qualifies.
Philip Zimmermann is aware of the desire for longer keys in PGP by some PGP
fans (like me), but wants to migrate towards that goal in an orderly way, by
first releasing versions of PGP in for all platforms and for both commercial
(Viacrypt) and freeware (MIT) flavors that ACCEPT long keys, then releasing
versions that can also GENERATE long keys. He also has some other neat key
management ideas that he plans to implement in future versions.
WHAT ARE THE KNOWN BUGS IN PGP?
These are the most annoying:
MIT PGP 2.6 -- the function xorbytes doesn't. Replace the = with ^= to fix
it. The effect of this bug is that RSA keys aren't quite as
random as they should be -- probably not a practical problem,
but worth fixing if you are going to compile the code
yourself.
MIT PGP 2.6 -- DON'T SET PGPPASS when editing your keys, because if you do,
and if you don't change your pass phrase, the key is lost.
(If this happens, rename your backup keyring files to the
primary files before you do anything else).
PGP 2.6ui -- Conventional encryption -c option doesn't use a different IV
every time, like it is supposed to. (PGP 2.3a had this
problem, too).
WHERE CAN I GET VIACRYPT PGP?
Versions are available for DOS, Unix, or WinCIM/CSNav
Commercial software. Call 800-536-2664 to order.
If you are a commercial user of PGP in the USA or Canada, contact Viacrypt in
Phoenix, Arizona, USA. The commecial version of PGP is fully licensed to use
the patented RSA and IDEA encryption algorithms in commercial applications,
and may be used in corporate environments in the USA and Canada. It is fully
compatible with, functionally the same as, and just as strong as the freeware
version of PGP. Due to limitations on ViaCrypt's RSA distribution license,
ViaCrypt only distributes executable code and documentation for it, but they
are working on making PGP available for a variety of platforms. Call or
write to them for the latest information. The latest version number for
their version of PGP is 2.7.
Upgrade from Viacrypt PGP 2.4 to 2.7 is free if you bought version 2.4 after
May 27, 1994, otherwise the upgrade is US$10.
Viacrypt's licensing and price information is as follows:
ViaCrypt PGP for MS-DOS 1 user $ 99.98
ViaCrypt PGP for MS-DOS 5 users $ 299.98
ViaCrypt PGP for MS-DOS 20 users or more, call ViaCrypt

WHERE CAN I GET MIT PGP?
MIT PGP is Copyrighted freeware.
Telnet to net-dist.mit.edu, log in as getpgp, answer the questions, then ftp
to net-dist.mit.edu and change to the hidden directory named in the telnet
session to get your own copy.
MIT-PGP is for U. S. and Canadian use only, but MIT is only distributing it
within the USA (due to some archaic export control laws).
1. Read ftp://net-dist.mit.edu/pub/PGP/mitlicen.txt and agree to it.
2. Read ftp://net-dist.mit.edu/pub/PGP/rsalicen.txt and agree to it.
3. Telnet to net-dist.mit.edu and log in as getpgp.
4. Answer the questions and write down the directory name listed.
5. QUICKLY end the telnet session with ^C and ftp to the indicated directory
on net-dist.mit.edu (something like /pub/PGP/dist/U.S.-only-????) and get
the distribution files (pgp26.zip, pgp26doc.zip, pgp26src.tar.gz,
MacPGP2.6.sea.hqx, and MacPGP2.6.src.sea.hqx).
If the hidden directory name is invalid, start over at step 3, above.
File names (shortened file names are for DOS BBS distribution):
pgp26doc.zip - documentation only
pgp26.zip - includes DOS executable & documentation
pgp26src.zip - source code
pgp26src.tar or pgp26src.tar.gz - source code release for Unix and others
macpgp26.hqx or MacPGP2.6.sea.hqx - Macintosh executable & documentation
macpgp26.src or MacPGP2.6.src.sea.hqx - Macintosh source code
mcpgp268.hqx or MacPGP2.6-68000.sea.hqx - Macintosh executable for 68000
pgp26os2.zip - OS/2 executable (may not be on the MIT archive)
RSA and IDEA algorithms licenced for personal and noncommercial use.
Uses RSAREF, which may not be modified without RSADSI permission.
Contains "time bomb" to start generating messages incompatible with PGP 2.3
and 2.4 on 1 September 1994 as an incentive for people to not use PGP 2.3a in
the USA, which RSADSI claims infringes on their patents. Mac versions are
not yet Applescriptable. This version is not intended for export from the
USA and Canada due to the USA's International Traffic in Arms Regulations and
Canada's corresponding regulations.

COMPUSERVE
The NCSA Forum sysops have a library that is available only to people who
send them a message asserting that they are within the U. S. A. This library
contains PGP. I have also seen PGP 2.6 in some other places on Compuserve.
Try searching for PGP26.ZIP in the IBMFF forum for up-to-date information on
PGP in selected other areas. The last time I tried a search like this, PGP
2.6 was found in the PC World Online forum (GO PWOFORUM) new uploads area,
along with several PGP shells and accessories. I've also heard that
EUROFORUM caries PGP 2.6ui, but have not confirmed this.
Compuserve file names are even more limited than DOS, so the file names to
look for are PGP26.ZIP, PGP26S.ZIP (source code), and PGP26D.ZIP
(documentation only).

Other BBS and ftp sites do have these files, as well. I noticed that
PGP26.ZIP is being distributed on FIDONET.
WHERE CAN I GET PGP FOR USE OUTSIDE OF THE USA?
The latest for outside the USA is the "Unofficial International" PGP 2.6 for
most platforms, MacPGP 2.3aV1.2 for the Mac (although 2.6ui is under
development and should appear very soon), and 2.3a.4 for the Amiga. The
latest amiga version is fully compatible with MIT's PGP 2.6.
Copyrighted freeware.
Version 2.6ui released by [email protected].
Amiga version 2.3a4 released by Peter Simons <[email protected]>
These versions do NOT use RSAREF. No RSA patent problems outside the USA, but
this version is not legal for commercial or extensive personal use in the
USA. IDEA licensed for presonal use only in countries where the IDEA patent
holds.
The freeware version of PGP is intended for noncommercial, experimental, and
scholarly use. It is available on thousands of BBSes, commercial information
services, and Internet anonymous-ftp archive sites on the planet called
Earth. This list cannot be comprehensive, but it should give you plenty of
pointers to places to find PGP. Although the latest freeware version of PGP
was released from outside the USA (England), it is not supposed to be
exported from the USA under a strange law called the International Traffic in
Arms Regulations (ITAR). Because of this, please get PGP from a site outside
the USA if you are outside of the USA and Canada. Even though the RSAREF
license associated with PGP 2.6 from MIT no longer prohibits use outside the
USA, it still carries the not-for-profit restriction that the original RSA
code in PGP 2.6ui doesn't have. On the other hand, patents on the IDEA
cipher may limit PGP use in your country to nonprofit applications, anyway.
Indeed, I understand that there are some countries where private electronic
mail is not legal, anyway.
These listings are subject to change without notice. If you find that PGP has
been removed from any of these sites, please let me know so that I can update
this list. Likewise, if you find PGP on a good site elsewhere (especially on
any BBS that allows first time callers to access PGP for free), please let me
know so that I can update this list.

This information from: Jim Wenzel <[email protected]>
If you find a version of the PGP package on a BBS or FTP site and it does not
include the PGP User's Guide, something is wrong. The manual should always
be included in the package. If it isn't, the package is suspect and should
not be used or distributed. The site you found it on should remove it so
that it does no further harm to others.
ARCHIE WHO?
There are many more sites. You can use archie and/or other "net-surfing"
tools to find a more up-to-date listing, if desired.
