No Crypt


I have been trying to find the source for a UNIX program called crypt but can't find it anywhere.

This was/is a really really good tool for encrypting files and it'd be really nice to have a copy for my RH9 box.

If someone could tell me where to find it I would be sooo grateful

Thanks,
Allan

A simple google search for 'unix crypt' yielded these links:

http://home.iitk.ac.in/student/apurvams/crypt-c.html

http://mcrypt.hellug.gr/

The first is to the source code for the unix crypt *function*. The second is to a program (and library) intended as a GPL'ed replacement to the unix crypt *program*

Enjoy!
