| Subject: aes encryption under windows and aix different?
| 
| 
| Hello list,
| 
| I have a programm, that works under different platforms 
| (hp-ux, aix, linux,
| windows nt/2000). This program sends some information 
| (beside, xdr coded
| with the help of rpc) from one platform to another platform. I want to
| encrypt this communication with aes. For this purpose I'm 
| using the aes
| encryption from the crypto library. This works for nearly 
| every platform,
| but if I send the encrypted information from aix 4.3.2 to 
| windows 2000 the
| communication fails. This is very strange, as it works great 
| for the other
| platforms, e.g. linux -> windows, hp-ux -> windows, windows 
| -> windows.

Hi Mario,

The only difference I see is the LF and CR/LF differences in the files you
provided. IIRC, Linux tries to cope with this silently for you (when going
from Windows (which uses CR/LF) to Linux). I do not know about the other
flavors of *nix.

When you FTP in ASCII mode, the conversion occurs for you. In Binary mode,
no conversion occurs.

Can you run your test again without the CRs and LFs?

Jeff
