SCO OpenServer 5 and File Encryption

My U.S. version of SCO Openserver 5 did not install "crypt". I'm looking into that for encryption, but I also looked into PGP, and openssl.

Encryption Tool for SCO OPenserver

What would you recommend for encryption on a SCO unix box, with local application only? My box is not on the internet, and all I want to do is take a text file of digits and encrypt them. Should I try to write my own program, or is there a tool I can use or buy?

File encryption/Key encryption ????

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...

NAME

       bootcdbackup - create a bootable offline backup of a unix system

SYNOPSIS

       bootcdbackup [-i] [-v] [-s] [-c <config directory>] [-url <url] [-nomount] [-2diskconf <file>] <dev> <name> <builddir>

DESCRIPTION

       bootcdbackup  creates a offline backup from a installed system. You need a running bootcd to boot the system with. This CD/DVD is booted on
       the system and bootcdbackup creates a bootable CD/DVD with the bootcd kernel and the backup disk as tar-file.

       To restore or clone the system, boot the CD/DVD image and install it with bootcd2disk -c <name> on the system.

       bootcdbackup can try to discover the disk partition by searching for fstab on the given partition. A other way to backup the partition  ta-
       ble is the program bootcdmk2diskconf which creates a configuration file on a running system.

OPTIONS

       -i  The bootcdbackup runs in interactive mode and you can run each function manually. This option is useful for debugging.

       -v  The option "-v" (verbose) adds messages on running.

       -s  This option can be used to disable interactive questions and to try to ignore errors.

       -c <config directory>
	   The configuration directory which includes the file "bootcdbackup.conf", default is "/etc/bootcd".

       -url <url>
	   If bootcdbackup is slow on your system (because of a slow CD/DVD drive or the HP ILO virtual CD interface), you can use an image server
	   to get the image from.

	   bootcdbackup use the SWAP partition of your upcoming system as temporary space and copy the image from the configured image	server	to
	   this partition and use it as image.	The image server url is configured with this option.

       -nomount
	   The target disk should not be mounted and no search for fstab is done.

       --cpio
	   Normally  as  backup  tool  star  will be used if selinux files have to be backed up and cpio will be used if not. With this option the
	   usage of cpio can be forced.

       --star
	   Normally as backup tool star will be used if selinux files have to be backed up and cpio will be used if  not.  With  this  option  the
	   usage of star can be forced.

       -2diskconf <file>
	   The	parameter  configures a bootcd2disk.conf for the restore of the system done by bootcd2disk.  The configuration file can be created
	   with the command bootcdmk2diskconf.

	<dev>
	   Configures the device where bootcdbackup finds the file "fstab" and discover the configuration for the restore.

	<name>
	   The name of the backup (no blanks!) is used on the creation time and to restore the backup with bootcd2disk -c <name>.

	<builddir>
	   Builddir is an directory on the backup system where bootcdbackup build the backup CD/DVD. Space for the CD/DVD image,  for  compression
	   and the data is needed!

       All other configuration has to be done in the config files.
