Off-the-Record (OTR) Messaging allows you to have private
conversations over instant messaging by providing:
* Encryption
No one else can read your instant messages.
* Authentication
You are assured the correspondent is who you think it is.
* Deniability
The messages you send do not have digital signatures that
are checkable by a third party. Anyone can forge messages
after a conversation to make them look like they came from
you. However, during a conversation, your correspondent is
assured the messages he sees are authentic and unmodified.
* Perfect forward secrecy
If you lose control of your private keys, no previous
conversation is compromised.
Port by Nicolas Baldi
ok todd@
handle a few appliances, and PF.
Having this around may help some people start up on OpenBSD (yeah, right)
and it also comes with a few reasonable policies.
Nice things:
- the produced files look decent for mechanically generated files.
- fwbuilder can take advantage of packet-filter specific features.
For instance, it knows about modulate state, or can tweak the parameters
for state keeping on pf.
- this version only comes with GPLed plugins
- for easier maintenance split the port into several subports

Amap is a next-generation scanning tool, which identifies applications
and services even if they are not listening on the default port by
creating a bogus-communication and analyzing the responses.
From Alexandre Anriot <aanriot@atlantilde.com>
- fix buffer length calculation, which prevented vpnc to work in case
of 'big' packets close to tun's MTU (reported by Mischa Diehm
<md at mailq.de>), submitted upstream
zsig embeds or verifies RSA PKCS #1 v2.0 or DSA SHA1 signatures
in gzip(1) compressed files using SSH1 identity keys, X509
certificates, or KeyNote public/private keys.
feedback and ok jolan@
- cmkdir now uses /dev/srandom (actually changed to arandom by me)
