I was trying to have an SHA256 encryption which further be encrypted into base 64 using AIX unix command shasum -a 256.
What I found in this is my output is different than a website: "online-convert[dot]com"
Actually conversion from website is exactly matching my requirements but same when I am trying to achieve using AIX Unix commands unable to get matching result.
Posting "Does not work" without explanation does not help you or anyone. If a command does not work for you, please show the exact circumstances you used it, and the exact error or malfunction you received. Do not paraphrase errors, or post the text as links, images, or attachments if you can avoid it: Paste the exact message, in code tags, like [code] text [/code] or by selecting the text and using the https://www.unix.com/images/editor/code.png button.
Thank you.
The UNIX and Linux Forums
I suspect, but can't prove, that the ones you're hashing (not encrypting -- it's not reversible) in UNIX have linefeeds and the ones from the website do not.
There is zero point obfuscating a sha hash, don't bother. You could try salting it instead.
If you'd like to receive help, first of all you have to write what you expect to see. Then what you did and which output you got. Otherwise it is like reading the tea leaves.

I need a statement that can compare between FileA... (5 Replies)
Hi all,
I'm looking for secure file encryption tools that use MAC address as encryption key. FYI, I'm using Red Hat Enterprise Linux OS.
For example: when A wants to send file to B
A will encrypt the file with B's computer MAC/IP address as an encryption key
This file can only be decrypted... (2 Replies)

Hi,
Is it possible to convert MD5 passwords to SHA-512?
I'm about to migrate an old slackware server to Debian, then I noticed that they don't use same encryption method.
I'm aware that I can change the encryption method in Debian to MD5, but as far as I understand SHA-512 is more secure,... (2 Replies)
Hi Everyone,
I have a strange behaviour
In my c program i use this line:

My dilemma,
I need to send, deemed confidential, information via e-mail (SMTP). This information is sitting as a file on AIX. Typically I can send this data as a e-mail attachment via what we term a "mail filter" using telnet. I now would like to somehow encrypt the data and send it to a e-mail... (1 Reply)
