Hi Glen,

It looks like cpan.org's Archive::Zip doesn't support encryption.  Probably because it's more of a function of the WinZip front-end... I'm thinking this because good-old "zip.exe" doesn't know anything about passwords, either.

Maybe you can encrypt the files that you add to your Perl-created Zip-file  via something like "Toolbox::CryptOTP"??   and decrypt them later?

Just a thought-  HTH

Hi Folks,
 
Do any of you know of a way or know of a module that can password-protect a ZIP file?
 
I've just started using Archive::Zip, and it works well, but I don't see any way to password-protect the ZIP file that is created from Archive::Zip.
 
I've looked thru the Archive::Zip  documents, but I don't see any method to programmatically add a password to the ZIP file that is created.
 
Thanks in advance for any help.
