Whats wrong with openssl ? openssl des3 -in test.txt -out test.txt.enc or openssl aes-256-cbc -in test.txt -out test.txt.enc This is only as strong as your passphrase. Using something like GPG has other advantages since the private key can be kept in a separate location from the encrypted file. ---Mike _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
