Qualcuno sa se le distribuzioni europee (Suse, Mandrake ecc.) possiedono gia'
la patch per la Crytpo API del kernel (quella di www.kerneli.org) o hanno
un meccanismo per gestirla direttamente durante l'installazione?
Sul sito c'e' scritto:
"Due to previous regulations on export and use of crypto, especially in
the US, the Linux source distribution has not contained crypto up to
this point. The International Kernel Patch and CryptoAPI team have
tried to remedy this situation by providing the missing functionality
in the form of a unified patch to the Linux kernel source. [A patch
is the difference between two sources - the International Kernel Patch
is distributed as the difference between the original Linux source
distribution and the "International" Linux source distribution].
Lately, some US export restrictions have been lifted, and it is
therefore possible that crypto will be part of the linux kernel source
code in the future. However, until that happens, this is where you
can get crypto support in your linux kernel."
Per cui non mi aspetto che RedHat ce l'abbia.
Emanuele
