   I am missing the unix crypt library, is it ported yet, or is it
   something to be looked at (by me probably)??

FAIK crypt is regulated by US Federal law.  Crypt, and any other encryption
software, cannot be exported from the US without specific licenses for the
distributor and the recipient.  Indeed the government is trying to stop the
author of the PGP(?) public key encryption from distributing his algorithm.
