Triple DES encryption and invoking C program

[Guest_imported]

I need to use a triple DES encryption for passwords in a COBOL program.
I have been trying to call a C program -Cipher- but I cannot pass any parameters via an exec sentence.
So I need some COBOL triple DES encryption routine or I need to leran who to invoke a C program from a COBOL one.

Hi,

I don't have triple DES for you. There is a COBOL encryption program on the market with an encryption key of more than 20000 bits. It is called ZisCrypt and will soon be available at the site

http://www.zis.nl.

There are some free examples of interacting with C programs on the ftp site of CA. You can find their FTP site at ftp://ftp.cai.com/caproducts/realia/Samples/

If you use an other compiler, try to find the examples from the other supplier. On the installation disks of your supplier are perhaps also examples.

I hope this is helpful.
