I have also written (an even shorter) program which appears to show that the setkey(3)/encrypt(3) library routines are broken, this time on BSD4.2. I don't have it here, but the basics are that the program fragment: setkey(key); encrypt(block, 0); encrypt(block, 1); Should be a no-op on "block", but is not. Could someone confirm that this is true? Or explain where the documentation fails? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SENDER : "Andrew Hilborne" PHONE : +44 91 2722522 POST : MARI Ltd, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE4 8RY, UK UUCP : <UK>!ukc!mari!amh
