Operating Systems AIX Problem with the Characters!!! Post 302217673 by mvictorvijayan on Wednesday 23rd of July 2008 10:11:10 AM

Hi Zaxxon,

Thanks for your reply. I am using Blowfish algorithm to encrypt the password in unix side. If i decrypt the password in AIX it gives for example M¼^Û«PV. But if i decrypt the same password in windows it gives something like M|#/{PV. Which means it is not correctly decrypting the special characters. Is that anything related to encoding?
