Re: [AOLSERVER] Triple DES Encryption
No. nsopenssl only encrypts SSL traffic. It doesn't have the smarts yet to take a chunk of data and encrypt it and pass it back to you, though it's possible to add that functionality to the module. Right now, you could run a shell (ugh, I know) script that takes your data, runs it through openssl and returns the result to you. Unless you want to hack on the nsopenssl module and add the capability you need (which I'll gladly peer review and incorporate into the released version). Otherwise it'll have to wait until I've completed this iteration of the module. /s. > From what I understand I would be needing to encrypt the data (text > string) with 3DES and then I would put this encrypted string at the end of > a HTTPS URL. > The receiving end would then decrypt and use the text string. > Would nsopenssl do this ? > > divney > > At 01:33 PM 7/23/01 -0400, Scott Goodwin wrote: > >If you're talking about 3DES over an SSL connection, nsopenssl can do that. > > > >If you're talking about 3DES to encrypt files on disk, in memory etc., > >nsopenssl doesn't do that...but it's an interesting idea which I've just > >added to my todo list.

Re: [AOLSERVER] Triple DES Encryption
From what I understand I would be needing to encrypt the data (text string) with 3DES and then I would put this encrypted string at the end of a HTTPS URL. The receiving end would then decrypt and use the text string. Would nsopenssl do this ? divney At 01:33 PM 7/23/01 -0400, Scott Goodwin wrote: >If you're talking about 3DES over an SSL connection, nsopenssl can do that. > >If you're talking about 3DES to encrypt files on disk, in memory etc., >nsopenssl doesn't do that...but it's an interesting idea which I've just >added to my todo list.

Re: [AOLSERVER] Triple DES Encryption
If you're talking about 3DES over an SSL connection, nsopenssl can do that. If you're talking about 3DES to encrypt files on disk, in memory etc., nsopenssl doesn't do that...but it's an interesting idea which I've just added to my todo list. It would be useful to use be able to do: set rc [ns_openssl_crypt -cipher 3des -file /blah -password aoeu2345] /s. > Hello, > > Not being that familiar with encryption, do there exist AOLServer TCL > commands to handle Triple DES encryption ? > > I am thinking maybe via OpenSSL or ns_openssl, but I am not sure. > > I think I may have found a way to do this in Perl, but would rather do so > in TCL. > > Thanks !! > > divney > >
[AOLSERVER] Triple DES Encryption
Hello, Not being that familiar with encryption, do there exist AOLServer TCL commands to handle Triple DES encryption ? I am thinking maybe via OpenSSL or ns_openssl, but I am not sure. I think I may have found a way to do this in Perl, but would rather do so in TCL. Thanks !! divney
