What I have never understood is whether Kerberos, SSH, SSL, TLS, VPN and/or
IPV6 if it has any security stuff.. Whether ANY of these (and I'm sure I'm
missing a few) run the exact same encryption methods or not??  If not, SEEMS
like would be an advantage to the added overhead as it would appear to be
harder to crack both at the same time, but dunno if that's the case at all.

Afaik, none of these are sufficient to store and forward legal votes, btw.

Never thought-a that one.  Again, different VPNs run different encryption
schemes??

Yer TWISTed, James...;-D  Hadn't done that stuff for decades, but may take a
stab.  Since it's Friday, saw some interesting OT: from Stephen Donaldson
(iirc??, and didn't he write "In beg wuz CmdLine"???) a while back on a new
book or project or sumthin.  Mebbe sooner, mebbe later...
