All I want to do is encrypt a file with a password for safe keeping and transmitting over unsecure networks. The libraries are there and I suppose I could write a program to do it, and even the Sun man page talks about the application but where the hell is the damn thing? Sorry, but it seems like such a simple thing to ask of a vendor that I've lost all my patience. I could send you one if you weren't in the US. Unfortunately, your government's ITAR silliness forbids you to import them without a license. (At last, I get my own back!!! 8-) Sorry.
