4     Mixmaster can be used with either of the cryptographic libraries
5 rabbi 208 RSAREF or OpenSSL. The Src directory should contain a directory (or
6     symbolic link) named `rsaref' or `ssleay' (for legacy reasons). Mixmaster
7     also checks for OpenSSL in /usr/local/ssl. OpenSSL is available from
8 rabbi 235 <URL:http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-0.9.6g.tar.gz>.

10     Installation:
11     -------------
12    
13     To install or upgrade Mixmaster, type `./Install'.
14    
15 rabbi 235 The Mixmaster remailer can be installed on any account that can
16 rabbi 200 receive mail. Non-remailer messages will be delivered as usual. See
17     the manual page mixmaster(1) for instructions on using Mixmaster and
18     for details about Mixmaster as a remailer.
19    
20     You can get a list of Mixmaster remailers (type2.list) and their public
21 rabbi 235 keys (pubring.mix) by running the script "getlist" in the directory where
22     these files are to be stored. This script will also obtain a list of reliable
23     remailers (mix.list). If you're paranoid, get them directly from
24     the remailers and slap them into the proper files yourself with your
25     favorite editor. The mix.list file can be obtained from the WWW by running
26     "lynx -dump http://anon.efga.org/Remailers/mlist >$MIXPATH/mix.list".
27 rabbi 200 This command can be run periodically using cron.
