Re:  Password encryption in Java based on the Data
Encryption Standard algorithm

I encrypt passwords using "crypt" function in Perl  as
shown below and save it in the "user" table: 

// crypt("<password in plain text>", "<user-id>")
$pwd = crypt("test1", "sagara");  

The out put $pwd is:  saTBKtwSCLJ0A

I need to authenticate users in Java programs against
the same "user" table. Could somebody please explain
to me how to do this in Java programming language? I
need to generate the same "saTBKtwSCLJ0A" encrypted
password once the plain text password "test1" and the
user id "sagara" are given.

Appreciate if you could show the relevant parts of a
working Java program.

I use JDK 1.4.1 on Red Hat Linux 7.2 on Intel based PC
server. 

Many thanks in advance.

Regards
Sagara
