Thanks Jim..I'm not planning on taking an encrypted file from HP-UX and decrypt it on Linux. We currently have a nightly job that encrypts some flat files in HP-UX environment. When we move to Linux I just want to make sure that the job runs fine in the new environment..I guess I need to modify the script to call the Linux encrypt function..Would you by any chance have the syntax or some code samples. I don't have access to the Linux machine yet and I'm not able to play around with it yet..

Thanks

MEMFROB(3)						     Linux Programmer's Manual							MEMFROB(3)

NAME
memfrob - frobnicate (encrypt) a memory area SYNOPSIS
#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */ #include <string.h> void *memfrob(void *s, size_t n); DESCRIPTION
The memfrob() function encrypts the first n bytes of the memory area s by exclusive-ORing each character with the number 42. The effect can be reversed by using memfrob() on the encrypted memory area. Note that this function is not a proper encryption routine as the XOR constant is fixed, and is suitable only for hiding strings. RETURN VALUE
The memfrob() function returns a pointer to the encrypted memory area. ATTRIBUTES
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7). +----------+---------------+---------+ |Interface | Attribute | Value | +----------+---------------+---------+ |memfrob() | Thread safety | MT-Safe | +----------+---------------+---------+ CONFORMING TO
The memfrob() function is unique to the GNU C Library. SEE ALSO
