- What 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:/pc/crypt by anon ftp logon. You can always call
- the Hieroglyphic Voodoo Machine BBS at 1.303.443.2457 (N81 V.32bis) and
- pick it up for free.
-
- This doc file is a little old, the latest version of PGP is 2.3a so look
- for it as PGP23A.ZIP. Okay then... - Johannes

-
- 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.)

- format)

- 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:
