-----BEGIN TYPE III ANONYMOUS MESSAGE-----
Message-type: plaintext

For Mac users, there are few equivalents to the programs that
PC users take for granted. Can anyone tell me the best
programs for MAC that would do the same as these programs?
(links would be appreciated)

1. Sockscap/Freecap
2. Quicksilver/JBN
3. PuTTY

Also, if someone could list the best programs for Linux that would
be very helpful as well.

Putty Equivalent: If you are pre-OSX you want to use Nifty Telnet SSH.
If you are in OSX you can use ssh, sftp, and scp directly in your terminal
app.

For Mixmaster: In pre-OSX you can use the cumbersome Mixfit. I think you
will have to manually mix each layer for it to come out right because it
creates a "mailto: remailername" header which isn't recognized by
remailers. You may have to replace "mailto" with a double colon, carriage
return, remailername . I wasn't able to figure out how to change the
source code.

If you are using OSX you may have to use the commandline -o option with a
unix mixmaster to create a usable mix file. From there you can anonymize
it further very well with pgp cypherpunk etc.

I've never used Quicksilver/JBN since I don't have a windoze/dos box.

I don't know anything about sockscap or freecap. I never got that far in
the unix book. All my socks get holes because I forget to trim my
toe nails.

If you can get a mix program to compile correctly on linux there shouldn't
be any problems. It worked for me many years ago but I haven't had linux
since then.
