  Install PGP in Terminate/TerMail FAST / EASY!  


 This is the fast to run PGP with TerMail!

 1. Getting the files:

      PGP262.ZIP & TERPGP35.ZIP

      PGP262.ZIP is available on any decent BBS. (Philip Zimmermann)
      TERPGP35.ZIP is available from all Terminate sites. (Dave Wapstra)

 2. Setting up PGP FAST!

      Make a directory under TERMAIL called PGP and unpack
      PGP262.ZIP in this directory.

      Md C:\TERMINAT\TERMAIL\PGP
      Cd C:\TERMINAT\TERMAIL\PGP
      Pkunzip C:\TERMINAT\DOWNLOAD\PGP262.ZIP

      Edit the file CONFIG.TXT, find the line (around line 10)
      "# MyName =" Remove the # and insert your name like this:

      MyName = "Bo Bendtsen"
                 ^^^^^^ <------  Your name

      Run PGP: PGP -kg (generate key-pair). Select military style 1024 bit
      encryption for maximum protection and just follow the instructions.

      Edit AUTOEXEC.BAT and insert two lines:

      SET PGPPATH=C:\TERMINAT\TERMAIL\PGP
      SET PGPPASS=your secret pass phrase

      Please note that PGPPASS can be omitted for security reasons, but
      then you have to enter the pass phrase (password) each time you
      want to sign or encrypt a message. If someone else have access to
      your machine and you are paranoid you should ommit it.

      Boot the machine to allow the SET to come into effect.

      PGP has now been installed. Easy right?

 3. Setting up TerMail interface

      Md C:\TERMINAT\TERMAIL\TERPGP
      Cd C:\TERMINAT\TERMAIL\TERPGP
      Pkunzip C:\TERMINAT\DOWNLOAD\TERPGP35.ZIP

      For version 3 ONLY!
      

       Edit TM.CFG search for ShiftF1

       Replace the line with this:

       ShiftF1    PGP   TerPGP\TerPGP !MSG FORCEMENU

       Enable AFTERMSG.BAT in TM.CFG
       Enable TerPGP\TERPGP.EXE TM.MSG in AFTERMSG.BAT


      For versions higher than 3
      

       Edit TM.CFG search for ShiftF1

       Replace the line with this:

       ShiftF1    PGP   TerPGP\TerPGP !MSG FORCEMENU !R

       Please note the !R command which will reload message text after
       the message was processed. This will be all you need.

 4. It works you have the ultimate protection from snooping people.
    Now you can even access and maintain everything by
    pressing Shift-F1 on a message and Dave's interface will handle
    everything and you just got around that part of reading documentation
    now where someone makes it easy for you! Please read the below rules
    if you want to use this encryption technology. Please crash all
    encrypted mail through Fidonet.

                                                            / Bo Bendtsen

 2.1.4  Encryption and Review of Mail

 FidoNet is an amateur system.  Our technology is such that the privacy of
 messages cannot be guaranteed.  As a sysop, you have the right to review
 traffic flowing through your system, if for no other reason than to ensure
 that the system is not being used for illegal or commercial purposes.
 Encryption obviously makes this review impossible.  Therefore, encrypted
 and/or commercial traffic that is routed without the express permission of
 all the links in the delivery system constitutes annoying behavior.  See
 section 1.3.6 for a definition of commercial traffic.
