Decrpting Blowish Encryted Files?
 

Ive encrypted a bunch of files using a windows based encyption program, and have transfered the files over to my linux file server. Now I want to know how to decrypt it on the linux box, but dont know what to use to decrpt the files... What should I use to decrypt my blowfish encrpted files?

You can use mcrypt

I encrypted the files with a password. I can't find a switch that allows a password... could you maybe give me a usage example?

@fleshwound:

example:
$ mdecrypt -a blowfish <filename>

it will ask you for a password after pressing <ENTER>.


or without prompting for a password:
$ mdecrypt -a blowfish -k <PASSWORD> -q <FILE>

replace "-q" with "-V" to have a verbose output.
