Author mixmaster 3 for win32 binary
Mae Bee

2006-03-23, 8:53 pm

Hi all,

where can I find win32 binaries of recent mixmaster versions (3.0b or
even 2.9.1)? Have no VCPP compiler at hand, and SourceForge only
provides a win16 .exe from 2002 ;-(

Regards

Mae

The Microsoft compiler can be downloaded legally for free at
microsoft.com

There are no binaries put out by the mixmaster dev team, just source.
Binaries from any other source are useless as you won't know if any
code has been inserted.

To the best of my knowledge (which isn't all that great), the latest compiled
Win32 binaries available publicly is Mix29b39.

So I gave it a try, and, not being an C++ expert, tried hard to build
the mixmaster binaries on my own (with gcc/MinGW and VCpp2005Express)
- but didn't succeed, mostly because of incompatible make files :-(

>There are no binaries put out by the mixmaster dev team, just source.


So, with no more than an ancient 16 bit dos binary available from
'official' sources, mixmaster seems to be a tool only for the
widespread ****x community, and not for the neglectable few average
Windoze users. What a pitty!

D'accord. But I can't understand, why release versions (e.g. 2.9.1
from 2003) aren't made available as binaries by the developers.

Thanks. I got it from the QS site. However it doesn't seem to support
the -o argument any longer, which allows to redirect an ASCII output
like

To: mix@outel.org

e.g. to stdout. And I'm looking for a 32 bit binary with stdin/stdout
capability, which, with a command similar to

mixmaster stdin -to a@b.com -o stdout -l 0 0 0 dizum

would allow direct in-memory communication without unsecure file
savings, so that I'm able to send the output using my own mail client.

Any help would be appreciated.

I don't understand your point. Mixmaster can be used from Windows by a number
of clients - JBN or QS for example. It isn't the binary availabilty that is at
fault, but the clients that are available to use it might just not suit you.
Or your current news/email client might not suit it; but that isn't
mixmaster's fault. I use Sylpheed/Vim, for example, which works as a threaded
email/news client and can call mixmaster to send a message via remailers
directly : the methods are out there, you just need to look outside the box.

By the way, the later binary (mix29b39) uses *,* style syntax, not the 0 0
syntax of the old version to list a remailer chain, and chains is now -c not -n.

The plan was to release binaries for win32. If you look in the source
code, you will see they even created a windows mixmaster gui installer.

The last I heard, weasel (the guy who was doing it) lost his windows
box and with it the capability to finish it off.

According to Zax, the next version is going to be released soon. This
may come with a win32 binary release, as the TODO file indicates this
is a priority.

This binary, used by QS, already seemed dodgy to me. Richard claimed
that disastry had built it some years ago, but Richard couldn't find
the PGP signature or the source code.

There's no way of knowing if it was modified.

I'm familiar with that, but it had to be a 2.0.4 example, while this
seems to be the only (compiled) version with the option to get back
the converted data (via -o resp. -O).

Yes, within 3.0b.

I'm glad to hear, that I didn't fail due to my incompetence in Cpp.

A favourable prospect. Are there public sources for such data?

Thanks
