Hopefully, someone has more clue than I on this; I couldn't find
anything in the list archives...

Using a recent version of openssl:

  # openssl version
  OpenSSL 0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 01 Jul 2008

I find that it claims knowledge of 'RC2-CBC-MD5':

  # openssl ciphers -v RC2-CBC-MD5
  RC2-CBC-MD5             SSLv2 Kx=RSA      Au=RSA  Enc=RC2(128)  Mac=MD5 

But, this cipher is not called out in cipher(1), nor here:

  http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ciphers.html

My question(s):

- why is this cipher not documented?

- what 'real' cipher is this?  I need to disable this cipher in a
  JSSE app, but can't figure out how to map it...

I'd appreciate any feedback...
