It looks like a pretty simple class, judging by the api...

Have you tried using

String encrypted = UnixCrypt.crypt("password");

and then on retrieval

if( UnixCrypt.matches(encrypted, "password"))
{
        <authentication OK>
}

etc.

Alternatively you can use the algorithms that come with the JDK to roll
your own one-way encryption function.
