Hi!

AFAIK is 24 km the longest connection ever realised so far.  The group of
N. Gisin at the Univsersity of Geneva tested a quantum channel below the
Geneva lake with a length of 24 km. To be found at:
A. Mueller, H. Zbinden and N. Gisin, Nature 378, 449(1995)

A Bibliography of Quantum Cryptography can be found at
http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~crepeau/Biblio-QC.html

I think there is something on Quantum Cryptography from Los Alamos
National Laboratory on Crypto'96 in August. They managed 7.5 km so far ? 

Greetings
