What the Hell is PGP?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's easier to explain if you just download it.
Here is some info on how and where to get ahold of PGP if you've picked up
PGPShell not knowing what it does. If you can't find PGP in the U.S. then
call up garbo.uwasa.fi by anon ftp logon. Apparently, RSA Data Security
is threatening U.S. sites with legal action if they continue to carry the
PGP program. Okay then... - Johannes Kepler

Subject: PGP 2.2 Sites
(Last modified: 0650 UTC, 31 Mar 93)
PGP v. 2.2 is on hundreds, if not thousands, of BBSes and Internet
anonymous-ftp archive sites throughout the world. This list cannot be
comprehensive, but it should give you plenty of pointers to the largest
and most frequently updated sites. Upcoming versions of the program
will appear first at these sites.
PGP 2.2 has been posted to the FidoNet Software Distribution Network
and should soon be up on most if not all Canadian and U.S. nodes
carrying SDN software. It has also been posted on almost all of the
major private North American BBS systems, thence to countless smaller
boards. Consult a list of your local BBSes; most with a sizeable file
inventory should carry the program under the filenames listed below.
On the Internet, there are many sites to try for anonymous ftp:
black.ox.ac.uk (129.67.1.165)
/src/security/pgp22.zip (MS-DOS executables & docs)
/src/security/pgp22src.zip (Unix, MS-DOS, VMS, Amiga sources,
docs, info on building PGP into
mailers, editors, etc.)
/src/security/pgp22.tar.Z (Same as PGP22SRC.ZIP, in Unix tar
format)
/src/security/macpgp2.2.cpt.hqx (Macintosh version)
ftp.demon.co.uk (158.152.1.65)
/pub/ibmpc/pgp/pgp22.zip
/pub/ibmpc/pgp/pgp22.taz (Same as pgp22src.tar.Z)
/pub/ibmpc/pgp/pgp22os2.zip (OS/2 V2.0 32-bit using EMX)
/pub/ibmpc/pgp/MacPGP2.2 (Macintosh version)
nic.funet.fi (128.214.6.100)
/pub/crypt/pgp22.zip
/pub/crypt/pgp22src.zip
/pub/crypt/pgp22.tar.Z
/pub/crypt/MacPGP2.2
garbo.uwasa.fi (128.214.87.1)

ghost.dsi.unimi.it (149.132.2.1)
/pub/security/pgp22.zip
/pub/security/pgp22src.zip
/pub/security/pgp22.tar.Z
night.nig.ac.jp (133.39.16.66)
/pub/security/PGP/pgp22.zip
/pub/security/PGP/pgp22src.zip
/pub/security/PGP/pgp22.tar.Z
/pub/security/PGP/MacPGP2.2
van-bc.wimsey.bc.ca (192.48.234.1)
/pub/crypto/New/pgp-2.2/pgp22.zip
/pub/crypto/New/pgp-2.2/pgp22src.zip
/pub/crypto/New/pgp-2.2/pgp22.tar.Z
For those lacking ftp connectivity to the net, nic.funet.fi also
offers the files via mail. Send the following mail message to
mailserv@nic.funet.fi:
ENCODER uuencode
SEND pub/crypt/pgp22src.zip
SEND pub/crypt/pgp22.zip
This will deposit the two zipfiles, as 15 batched messages, in your mailbox
with about 24 hours. Save and uudecode.
Another private BBS from which you can obtain PGP for the simple price of
the long-distance call time is the Grapevine BBS, the largest BBS in Arkansas.
It's run by Jim Wenzel in Little Rock. John Eichler, a PGP user at Grapevine,
sent me the following information for your edification and enlightenment:
> The GRAPEVINE BBS in Little Rock is the largest BBS in Arkansas. To
> help people obtain a copy of PGP, the GRAPEVINE has set up a special
> account for this purpose. The following phone numbers are applicable

> is jim.wenzel@grapevine.lrk.ar.us.
If none of these sites do it for you, let me know. Film at 11.
