<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I would like to know the key-length used for 3DES
data encryption in openssh.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I thought that it should be 192 (3 * 64) bits, but
the sshd man page states 128 bit key used for 3DES.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Also, I would like to know the 3des key negotiation
- who generates the key (the client or the server).</FONT></DIV></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am interested in the export regulations
concerning openssh in USA. Any idea on this ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I would really appreciate your help,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks,</FONT></DIV>
