No joy.

I guess the thing to do next is to hack the port address to the standard
lp0 value in NVRAM and see if that helps.

The following is a Python RSA implementation. According to the US Government
these three lines are "munitions" and posting them makes me an international
arms trafficker! Join me in civil disobedience; add these lines of code to
your .sig block to help get this stupid and unconstitutional law changed.

from sys import*;from string import*;a=argv;[s,p,q]=filter(lambda x:x[:1]!=
'-',a);d='-d'in a;e,n=atol(p,16),atol(q,16);l=(len(q)+1)/2;o,inb=l-d,l-1+d
while s:s=stdin.read(inb);s and map(stdout.write,map(lambda i,b=pow(reduce(
lambda x,y:(x<<8L)+y,map(ord,s)),e,n):chr(b>>8*i&255),range(o-1,-1,-1)))

when the government's purposes are beneficient... The greatest dangers
to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well meaning
but without understanding."
