[ActiveLock-Development] Re: Calling all developers...

[AJcompany A. <ajc...@ya...>]

Ok, I was just (today) working with trying to get CVS
source for the files,
and I've got WinCVS and TortiseCVS (I use TortiseCVS),
but I'd like someone
to
tell me how to get it working so that I can get (and
put) files as my sf
user (ajcompany). I currently try to get the files via
anon, but that is (at
least the last sf update said) about a day slow.

On another note, I had some idea for an
encryption/registration method
(process follows):

1. client generate private/public key pair
2. client send public key (and some other info,
whatever is usually used,
possibly encoded in the key instead of randomness) to
server
3. server encrypt a file with it's private key, and
then the client's public
key
4. server send file to client
5. client decrypts with it's private key and then with
the server's public
key (encoded in the client to begin with)
6. client checks registration and saves the decrypted
file.

The part that makes this special is that the file in
step 3 would be an
essential part of the program, such as printing, you
can comment out the
"make sure I'm registered" hooks, but you can't add in
the print function
without re-writing the program. An even better idea
would to store the
entire set of data the client got from the server and
then unpack that file
at runtime, and keep it in MEMORY ONLY so the file
couldn't be replaced.
(ok, there may be a flaw or so, feel free to point it
out)

Comment at will,
AJ
