    Thanks. I've been on a business trip last week. I'll take a look
    at it -- there is one problem I see so far, and that is the
    patent issue with some of these protocols. I know for sure we cannot
    use MD2 (I've asked RSA Inc.) and need to check on the other prototocols.
    The best solution would be a public key scheme (how do you upload the
    secret key for the message digest algorithms in a secure way?), but
    this would be far more complex to implement than a hash key algorithm.

    Well, I'll take a look -- the whole suite needs to reworked anyway
    (which is still on my agenda, like so many things...)

    73 & tnx,
