Hmm.... notice the use of a non public cipher as the base cipher.... what a shame....
The only reason for this is US export laws.
It will be shipping with examples of des-ecb, des-cfb, des-cbc, des-ede2, des-ede3, idea-ecb, idea-cfb, idea-cbc and rc4-128. If people could send me the official Object identifiers for these ciphers, I'll be able to support them in PKCS-7, otherwise they will only be supported in PEM mode.
Here are the ones I have: DES-ECB OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { algorithm 6 } DES-CBC OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { algorithm 7 } DES-OFB OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { algorithm 8 } DES-CFB OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { algorithm 9 } DES-MAC OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { algorithm 10 } DES-EDE OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { algorithm 17 } where algorithm OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {iso(1) identified-organization(3) oiw(14) secsig(3) algorithm(2)} --Jeff -- Jeff Weinstein - Electronic Munitions Specialist Netscape Communication Corporation jsw@netscape.com - http://home.netscape.com/people/jsw Any opinions expressed above are mine.
