   Hello all!  Subject says it all.  I run 386bsd with encrypted passwords, and
   I don't have the time to recompile xdm right now.  It would be very nice if 
   someone could point me to an xdm with a working crypt() available for ftp.


Export restrictions prevent us from providing binaries with a real
crypt in the US, but Thomas Meidinger <pingo@guug.de> has made an
xdm with DES available on cony.gsf.de (146.107.1.2) in /pub/xdm.

To recompile xdm with DES, first install a working crypt according
to Chris Demetriou's /usr/386bsd.errata/crypt.instructions.  Once
you have patched your libc's crypt, you can recompile it.  Amancio
Hasty put the xdm sources alone on nova.cc.purdue.edu
(128.210.7.22).cc.purdue.edu (128.210.7.22)
in /pub/386bsd/submissions/XFree86/xdm-src-1.1.tar.Z.
