Hello Slava, As you already know, I was working on an SSL/TLS binding. While my first choice was OpenSSL, I "discovered" cryptlib through the sci.crypt newsgroup. People were saying nice things about it; mainly its clean implementation, portability, and extensive documentation.
Well, cryptlib deserves its reputation. It offers simple paradigms that can be extended to different security contexts and on my way to implement the SSL/TLS interface I was also able to implement SSH. You can pull the patch from my darcs repository at http://azteca.dyn-o-saur.com/repos in the libs/cryptlib folder. So far, for this first release, I have implemented: - Enveloping/de-enveloping - Large data size enveloping/de-enveloping - Password encryption - Large data size password encryption - Compression - Conventional encryption (AES, DES, Triple DES, IDEA, etc.) - Generating a key pair (RSA, DSA, DH, etc.) - Simple certificate creation, signing, and exporting - SSH sessions - SSL/TLS sessions I haven't added any documentation because cryptlib includes a 420-page user manual that goes a long way in simplifying many crypto concepts and their utilization. However, the companion test file covers every implemented feature. Again, Factor greatly simplifies the development of such interfaces. cryptlib and its manual are available at http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/cryptlib/ (to unzip cryptlib under Unix use the -a option to ensure that the text files are converted to the Unix format.)
