Hi.

I know virtually nothing about the subject of cryptography, so I need to rely on man pages and Google searches.

I ran your python code and the shell script. I'm not so sure that the shell variables are conveying to openssl what you intended. I don't know that it's wrong, but it's one area to consider.

How do you know that the openssl "des-ede3" is the equivalent of python's "DES3.MODE_ECB" ?

If I were faced with this, I would start with the very basic encryption (base64, "des" ?) with very plain text and passwords, and, once I was satisfied that that was working, work forward from there to the other protocols ... cheers, drl
