Hi ALL,

Thanks for the replies.

I think, I 'm not clear in my question.

Let me try again.


gzip doesn't support password protection.

But to set password protected, unix has crypt , pgp, gpg and so on.

I just require how does those encrytion can be done in gzip.

As a way like on guzip or gzip -d , I can get a password request prompt and thus decrypt the file.

Is this can be done?
Or
Do I need to go with encrypt & gzip and gunzip & decrypt?
