I'm not sure about crypto32, but please note that AT&T also
licenses implementations of those algorithms (as well as
RSA itself!) if the versions in crypto32 are encumbered in
any way.  Information on our CDK's can be found at
http://www.infoseccorp.com

OTOH, you can implement them yourself (or grab public
domain source code) and get off a whole lot cheaper. <g>
(Though you do need to worry about an RSA license for
another month.)

Subject: RC4 license



I am planning to commercially release a program that uses SFL. Do I have to
buy a license from RSA to use the RC2 and RC4 algorithms found in the
crypto32 library?
