Read the man pages for "openssl". Also, if you do
openssl list-cipher-commands [enter]
you should see a list of all the ciphers your openssl toolkit supports,
which should include many variations of des. I think the syntax for
using des with openssl is something like
openssl enc -des -in filename -out filename [other options]
See the man page for "enc" (stands for "encryption" I think).
