Get it at <a href="ftp://ftp.cs.duke.edu/pub/gallatin/osf1.tar.gz" eudora="autourl"><font color="#0000FF"><u>ftp://ftp.cs.duke.edu/pub/gallatin/osf1.tar.gz</a></font></u> "To get started, download the above tarball and untar it into your source tree. Then cd to sys/modules/osf1 and build & install it. Load the module with the just installed osf1 shell script."<br> <br> rc5des is statically linked, so you won't need any OSF/1 libs to run it. You will need to create /compat/osf1/etc/svc.conf; here's the one I use:<br> <br> aliases=local <br> group=local,yp <br> hosts=bind,local,yp <br> netgroup=local,yp <br> networks=local,yp <br> passwd=local,yp <br> protocols=local,yp <br> rpc=local,yp <br> services=local,ypSECLEVEL=BSD <br> <br> Now the bad news: Alphas do relatively poorly cracking RC5, I think due to lack of a rotate instruction. Be prepared for poor performance.<br> <br> otoh, Alphas do pretty good on DES. When the next DES contest starts be sure your Multia is ready to go.<br> <br> Jim<br> <br> </html> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
