Check byte order of the two implementations. Many blowfish implementations got byte order wrong. Does it help if you swap byte order from 0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7 to 7-6-5-4-3-2-1-0 of key/data/IV before and after crypto operation? -- Jari Ruusu 1024R/3A220F51 5B 4B F9 BB D3 3F 52 E9 DB 1D EB E3 24 0E A9 DD -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-crypto" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
