Abstract: A horizontal directional drilling system. The system has a pilot drill and an exit side drill, with a drill string extending between them. A backreamer is positioned between the drills to enlarge a borehole. The pilot drill pulls and rotates the backreamer. The exit side drill adds segments to the product pipe and pushes the product pipe into the enlarged borehole. The exit side drill is equipped with a rotational disconnect. The disconnect is engaged to allow torque transfer between a motor and a spindle when adding segments to the product pipe. The disconnect is disengaged to prevent torque transfer between the motor and the spindle when pushing the product pipe into the enlarged borehole.

Abstract: A communication server, interacting with an organization system having users that wish to communicate securely, provides secure communication capability to the users, without the communication server itself having access to unencrypted content of the user communications or to cryptographic keys that would allow the communication server to derive the unencrypted content. Thus, the communication server that provides the secure communication capability need not itself be trusted by the users with access to communicated content. To achieve this, the various entities communicate to exchange cryptographic keys in such a manner that the communication server never obtains usable copies of the cryptographic keys.
