It's even smaller than that. CTR mode is defined as a BIG-ENDIAN 128-bit number (AES only has one block size) 0 <= n <= 2^64-1 Chances are you don't want to abuse this -- this mode has not been studied as much, and it's a good idea to produce considerably less stream than allowed with a single key. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
