texte = Hi JohnSorry to be a pain, I have searched all over the net for something I can use for this and I'm really struggling. I don't suppose you know of any shell commands or software I can use to do this. Most of the articles I have looked at just say that it's not very strong encryption and so they don't show you how to do it. I know it's not very strong but it's what the third party uses and I have to find a solution.I have a php method I may be able to use but would prefer to stay within a WebDNA environment as much as poss as I don't know php that much even if I do need to go to a shell somewhere.Hope you or anyone else can help.Cheers========================================Steve Craig - Asylum Interactive LtdTel +44 1330 860550 Fax +44 1330 860880========================================http://www.asylumweb.comEmail: steve@asylumweb.comSkype: s.craig - iChat: steve.craig========================================On 22 May 2006, at 23:17, John Peacock wrote:> Steve Craig wrote:>> I am currently integrating a client site with a third party site, the>> third party has requested that all data going between the sites >> is XOR>> encrypted then Base64 encoded.
