sencrypt
========

Description
-----------

sencrypt and sdecrypt are utilities for encrypting and decrypting data with the
AES, DES, 3DES, and RC4 algorithms. It can read keys from files or ask for a
passphrase and use that together with a salt to derive a key using the PBKDF2
key derivation function.

sencrypt and sdecrypt are portable and compatible reimplementations of the
encrypt and decrypt utilities in Solaris/Illumos-based operating systems.

Build Instructions
------------------

sencrypt requires a POSIX:2004 compatible operating system, and needs GNU make,
GNU or BSD install, the xsltproc tool from libxml2 and the OpenSSL library to
be installed. It has been tested on Linux distributions, FreeBSD, Solaris and
Illumos-derived distributions, UnixWare, and OpenServer.
