Thanks for your reply. I have crypt command. It is installed but it looks like it is different than the unix version. In all Unix version, you can issue the following command to encrypt a file. The crypt command in cygwin does not accept file names.
crypt mypassword < filename > encryptedfilename where filename is the name of file you want to encrypt. -----Original Message----- From: Richard Campbell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, March 22, 2002 1:40 PM To: Gupta, Sanjay Subject: RE: crypt command Specifically, crypt is in the "crypt" package, under the "libs" category. -----Original Message----- From: Richard Campbell Sent: Friday, March 22, 2002 4:39 PM To: 'Gupta, Sanjay' Subject: RE: crypt command There is a crypt for cygwin. It is packaged as a cygwin package. If you do not have it, it is because you did not install it through setup.exe. -----Original Message----- From: Gupta, Sanjay [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, March 22, 2002 4:31 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: crypt command Hello All, I am looking for crypt command similar to unix crypt command. In Unix, I could do crypt password < filename > encryptedfilename but the same thing does not work in cygwin. I have asked this question before and did not get any satisfactory response. Please atleast tell me, whether it is possible to encrypt and decrypt a file using some other command. Thanks for your help.
