hi, BACKGROUND: i am working on 3DES implementation on freeSwan(written by Eric Young and distributed under GPL). Actually i am testing this implementation through test vectors given by NIST. These test vectors are known as Monte Carlo 3DES test vectors. I am facing strange problem when i give this 3DES implementation, input( given in "destest.c" file part of libdes folder), i get the encrypted output(matched with the output given in destest.c file) but when i give input from Monte Carlo test vectors, encypted output doesn't match the output of Monte Carlo test vectors result. PROBLEM STATEMENT: 1- i want to know that, is this implementation is starndard one ? means is it complete implemtation of DES/3DES algorithm. 2- is this implementation FIPS compliance ? if no, is there any changes that it would become FIPS compliance in future versions of freeSwan. thanks in advance. wadood _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus
