Hey, If I don't feed some random bytes (as data to encrypt - not as IV) to the Triple-DES, is that a weakness? I think I should add at least 1 block size of random bytes (64 bit - 8 bytes), to make sure that one-repeated character padding will not be added in the first block.
Thanks, Joe ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List openssl-dev@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
