I am trying to find a method for data encryption for data
being sent from Macs and PCs to an HP UNIX server. From
what I have read, Kerberos uses the best encryption method.
Thus, in the long run, I would like to implement Kerberos
on our system. Not knowing the length of time it would take
to implement Kerberos, I am wondering if I should begin with
a simplier? implementation of a DES algorithm (c code which
could be compiled on a PC, Mac and the HP UNIX server).
Therefore, I am looking for c code for encryption and
decryption (with documentation) which uses a
DES algorithm. A DES algorithm might provide adequate
security until Kerberos can be installed. Do you have any
suggestions? Is the c code for the kerberos DES Encryption
Library available? My address is
asmyth@warren.med.harvard.edu. Thanks.
