| -The primary ftp site for this library is
|
| -ftp://ftp.psy.uq.oz.au/pub/Crypto/DES/libdes-x.xx.tar.gz
|
| -libdes is now also shipped with SSLeay. Primary ftp site of
|

|
| -
|
| -The best way to build this library is to build it as part of SSLeay.
|
| -
|
| -This kit builds a DES encryption library and a DES encryption program.
|
| -It supports ecb, cbc, ofb, cfb, triple ecb, triple cbc, triple ofb,
|
| -triple cfb, desx, and MIT's pcbc encryption modes and also has a fast
|
| -implementation of crypt(3).
|
| -It contains support routines to read keys from a terminal,
|
| -generate a random key, generate a key from an arbitrary length string,
|
| -read/write encrypted data from/to a file descriptor.
|
| -
|
| -The implementation was written so as to conform with the manual entry
|
| -for the des_crypt(3) library routines from MIT's project Athena.
|
| -
|
| -destest should be run after compilation to test the des routines.
|
| -rpw should be run after compilation to test the read password routines.
|
| -The des program is a replacement for the sun des command. I believe it
|
| -conforms to the sun version.
|
| -
|
| -The Imakefile is setup for use in the kerberos distribution.
|
| -
|
| -These routines are best compiled with gcc or any other good
|
| -optimising compiler.
|
| -Just turn you optimiser up to the highest settings and run destest
|
| -after the build to make sure everything works.
|
| -
|
| -I believe these routines are close to the fastest and most portable DES
|
| -routines that use small lookup tables (4.5k) that are publicly available.
|
| -The fcrypt routine is faster than ufc's fcrypt (when compiling with
|
| -gcc2 -O2) on the sparc 2 (1410 vs 1270) but is not so good on other machines
|
| -(on a sun3/260 168 vs 336). It is a function of CPU on chip cache size.
|
| -[ 10-Jan-97 and a function of an incorrect speed testing program in
|
| - ufc which gave much better test figures that reality ].
|
| -
|
| -It is worth noting that on sparc and Alpha CPUs, performance of the DES
|
| -library can vary by upto %10 due to the positioning of files after application
|
| -linkage.
