+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+B<des>
encrypts and decrypts data using the
Data Encryption Standard algorithm.
One of
-.B \-e, \-E
+B<-e>, B<-E>
(for encrypt) or
-.B \-d, \-D
+B<-d>, B<-D>
(for decrypt) must be specified.
It is also possible to use
-.B \-c
+B<-c>
or
-.B \-C
+B<-C>
in conjunction or instead of the a encrypt/decrypt option to generate
a 16 character hexadecimal checksum, generated via the
-.I des_cbc_cksum.
-.LP
+I<des_cbc_cksum>.
+
Two standard encryption modes are supported by the
-.B des
+B<des>
program, Cipher Block Chaining (the default) and Electronic Code Book
(specified with
-.B \-b
-).
-.LP
+B<-b>).
+
The key used for the DES
algorithm is obtained by prompting the user unless the
-.B `\-k
-.I key'
+B<-k>
+I<key>
option is given.
If the key is an argument to the
-.B des
+B<des>
command, it is potentially visible to users executing
-.BR ps (1)
+ps(1)
or a derivative. To minimise this possibility,
-.B des
+B<des>
takes care to destroy the key argument immediately upon entry.
If your shell keeps a history file be careful to make sure it is not
world readable.
-.LP
-Since this program attempts to maintain compatability with sunOS's
+
+Since this program attempts to maintain compatibility with sunOS's
des(1) command, there are 2 different methods used to convert the user
supplied key to a des key.
Whenever and one or more of
-.B \-E, \-D, \-C
+B<-E>, B<-D>, B<-C>
or
-.B \-3
+B<-3>
options are used, the key conversion procedure will not be compatible
with the sunOS des(1) version but will use all the user supplied
character to generate the des key.

+
The problem with using the
-.B -e
+B<-e>
option is the short key length.
It would be better to use a real 56-bit key rather than an
ASCII-based 56-bit pattern. Knowing that the key was derived from ASCII
radically reduces the time necessary for a brute-force cryptographic attack.
My attempt to remove this problem is to add an alternative text-key to
DES-key function. This alternative function (accessed via
-.B -E, -D, -S
+B<-E>, B<-D>, B<-S>
and
-.B -3
-)
+B<-3>)
uses DES to help generate the key.
-.LP
-Be carefully when using the -u option. Doing des -ud <filename> will
-not decrypt filename (the -u option will gobble the d option).

+Be carefully when using the B<-u> option. Doing B<des -ud> I<filename> will

The VMS operating system operates in a world where files are always a
multiple of 512 bytes. This causes problems when encrypted data is

-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This library contains a fast implementation of the DES encryption
-algorithm.
-.PP
-There are two phases to the use of DES encryption.
-The first is the generation of a
-.I des_key_schedule
-from a key,
-the second is the actual encryption.
-A des key is of type
-.I des_cblock.
-This type is made from 8 characters with odd parity.
-The least significant bit in the character is the parity bit.
-The key schedule is an expanded form of the key; it is used to speed the
-encryption process.
-.PP
-.I des_read_password
-writes the string specified by prompt to the standard output,
-turns off echo and reads an input string from standard input
-until terminated with a newline.
-If verify is non-zero, it prompts and reads the input again and verifies
-that both entered passwords are the same.
-The entered string is converted into a des key by using the
-.I des_string_to_key
-routine.
-The new key is placed in the
-.I des_cblock
-that was passed (by reference) to the routine.
-If there were no errors,
-.I des_read_password
-returns 0,
--1 is returned if there was a terminal error and 1 is returned for
-any other error.
-.PP
-.I des_read_2password
-operates in the same way as
-.I des_read_password
-except that it generates 2 keys by using the
-.I des_string_to_2key
-function.
-.PP
-.I des_read_pw_string
-is called by
-.I des_read_password
-to read and verify a string from a terminal device.
-The string is returned in
-.I buf.
-The size of
-.I buf
-is passed to the routine via the
-.I length
-parameter.
-.PP
-.I des_string_to_key
-converts a string into a valid des key.
-.PP
-.I des_string_to_2key
-converts a string into 2 valid des keys.
-This routine is best suited for used to generate keys for use with
-.I des_ecb3_encrypt.
-.PP
-.I des_random_key
-returns a random key that is made of a combination of process id,
-time and an increasing counter.
-.PP
-Before a des key can be used it is converted into a
-.I des_key_schedule
-via the
-.I des_set_key
-routine.
-If the
-.I des_check_key
-flag is non-zero,
-.I des_set_key
-will check that the key passed is of odd parity and is not a week or
-semi-weak key.
-If the parity is wrong,
-then -1 is returned.
-If the key is a weak key,
-then -2 is returned.
-If an error is returned,
-the key schedule is not generated.
-.PP
-.I des_key_sched
-is another name for the
-.I des_set_key
-function.
-.PP
-The following routines mostly operate on an input and output stream of
-.I des_cblock's.
-.PP
-.I des_ecb_encrypt
-is the basic DES encryption routine that encrypts or decrypts a single 8-byte
-.I des_cblock
-in
-.I electronic code book
-mode.
-It always transforms the input data, pointed to by
-.I input,
-into the output data,
-pointed to by the
-.I output
-argument.
-If the
-.I encrypt
-argument is non-zero (DES_ENCRYPT),
-the
-.I input
-(cleartext) is encrypted in to the
-.I output
-(ciphertext) using the key_schedule specified by the
-.I schedule
-argument,
-previously set via
-.I des_set_key.
-If
-.I encrypt
-is zero (DES_DECRYPT),
-the
-.I input
-(now ciphertext)
-is decrypted into the
-.I output
-(now cleartext).
-Input and output may overlap.
-No meaningful value is returned.
-.PP
-.I des_ecb3_encrypt
-encrypts/decrypts the
-.I input
-block by using triple ecb DES encryption.
-This involves encrypting the input with
-.I ks1,
-decryption with the key schedule
-.I ks2,
-and then encryption with the first again.
-This routine greatly reduces the chances of brute force breaking of
-DES and has the advantage of if
-.I ks1
-and
-.I ks2
-are the same, it is equivalent to just encryption using ecb mode and
-.I ks1
-as the key.
-.PP
-.I des_cbc_encrypt
-encrypts/decrypts using the
-.I cipher-block-chaining
-mode of DES.
-If the
-.I encrypt
-argument is non-zero,
-the routine cipher-block-chain encrypts the cleartext data pointed to by the
-.I input
-argument into the ciphertext pointed to by the
-.I output
-argument,
-using the key schedule provided by the
-.I schedule
-argument,
-and initialisation vector provided by the
-.I ivec
-argument.
-If the
-.I length
-argument is not an integral multiple of eight bytes,
-the last block is copied to a temporary area and zero filled.
-The output is always
-an integral multiple of eight bytes.
-To make multiple cbc encrypt calls on a large amount of data appear to
-be one
-.I des_cbc_encrypt
-call, the
-.I ivec
-of subsequent calls should be the last 8 bytes of the output.
-.PP
-.I des_3cbc_encrypt
-encrypts/decrypts the
-.I input
-block by using triple cbc DES encryption.
-This involves encrypting the input with key schedule
-.I ks1,
-decryption with the key schedule
-.I ks2,
-and then encryption with the first again.
-2 initialisation vectors are required,
-.I ivec1
-and
-.I ivec2.
-Unlike
-.I des_cbc_encrypt,
-these initialisation vectors are modified by the subroutine.
-This routine greatly reduces the chances of brute force breaking of
-DES and has the advantage of if
-.I ks1
-and
-.I ks2
-are the same, it is equivalent to just encryption using cbc mode and
-.I ks1
-as the key.
-.PP
-.I des_pcbc_encrypt
-encrypt/decrypts using a modified block chaining mode.
-It provides better error propagation characteristics than cbc
-encryption.
-.PP
-.I des_cfb_encrypt
-encrypt/decrypts using cipher feedback mode. This method takes an
-array of characters as input and outputs and array of characters. It
-does not require any padding to 8 character groups. Note: the ivec
-variable is changed and the new changed value needs to be passed to
-the next call to this function. Since this function runs a complete
-DES ecb encryption per numbits, this function is only suggested for
-use when sending small numbers of characters.
-.PP
-.I des_ofb_encrypt
-encrypt using output feedback mode. This method takes an
-array of characters as input and outputs and array of characters. It
-does not require any padding to 8 character groups. Note: the ivec
-variable is changed and the new changed value needs to be passed to
-the next call to this function. Since this function runs a complete
-DES ecb encryption per numbits, this function is only suggested for
-use when sending small numbers of characters.
-.PP
-.I des_cbc_cksum
-produces an 8 byte checksum based on the input stream (via cbc encryption).
-The last 4 bytes of the checksum is returned and the complete 8 bytes is
-placed in
-.I output.
-.PP
-.I des_quad_cksum
-returns a 4 byte checksum from the input bytes.
-The algorithm can be iterated over the input,
-depending on
-.I out_count,
-1, 2, 3 or 4 times.
-If
-.I output
-is non-NULL,
-the 8 bytes generated by each pass are written into
-.I output.
-.PP
-.I des_enc_write
-is used to write
-.I len
-bytes
-to file descriptor
-.I fd
-from buffer
-.I buf.
-The data is encrypted via
-.I pcbc_encrypt
-(default) using
-.I sched
-for the key and
-.I iv
-as a starting vector.
-The actual data send down
-.I fd
-consists of 4 bytes (in network byte order) containing the length of the
-following encrypted data. The encrypted data then follows, padded with random
-data out to a multiple of 8 bytes.
-.PP
-.I des_enc_read
-is used to read
-.I len
-bytes
-from file descriptor
-.I fd
-into buffer
-.I buf.
-The data being read from
-.I fd
-is assumed to have come from
-.I des_enc_write
-and is decrypted using
-.I sched
-for the key schedule and
-.I iv
-for the initial vector.
-The
-.I des_enc_read/des_enc_write
-pair can be used to read/write to files, pipes and sockets.
-I have used them in implementing a version of rlogin in which all
-data is encrypted.
-.PP
-.I des_rw_mode
-is used to specify the encryption mode to use with
-.I des_enc_read
-and
-.I des_end_write.
-If set to
-.I DES_PCBC_MODE
-(the default), des_pcbc_encrypt is used.
-If set to
-.I DES_CBC_MODE
-des_cbc_encrypt is used.
-These two routines and the variable are not part of the normal MIT library.
-.PP
-.I des_set_odd_parity
-sets the parity of the passed
-.I key
-to odd. This routine is not part of the standard MIT library.
-.PP
-.I des_is_weak_key
-returns 1 is the passed key is a weak key (pick again :-),
-0 if it is ok.
-This routine is not part of the standard MIT library.
-.PP
-.I crypt
-is a replacement for the normal system crypt.
-It is much faster than the system crypt.
-.PP
-.SH FILES
-/usr/include/des.h
-.br
-/usr/lib/libdes.a
-.PP
-The encryption routines have been tested on 16bit, 32bit and 64bit
-machines of various endian and even works under VMS.
-.PP
-.SH BUGS
-.PP
-If you think this manual is sparse,
-read the des_crypt(3) manual from the MIT kerberos (or bones outside
-of the USA) distribution.
-.PP
-.I des_cfb_encrypt
-and
-.I des_ofb_encrypt
-operates on input of 8 bits. What this means is that if you set
-numbits to 12, and length to 2, the first 12 bits will come from the 1st
-input byte and the low half of the second input byte. The second 12
-bits will have the low 8 bits taken from the 3rd input byte and the
-top 4 bits taken from the 4th input byte. The same holds for output.
-This function has been implemented this way because most people will
-be using a multiple of 8 and because once you get into pulling bytes input
-bytes apart things get ugly!
-.PP
-.I des_read_pw_string
-is the most machine/OS dependent function and normally generates the
-most problems when porting this code.
-.PP
-.I des_string_to_key
-is probably different from the MIT version since there are lots
-of fun ways to implement one-way encryption of a text string.
-.PP
-The routines are optimised for 32 bit machines and so are not efficient
-on IBM PCs.
-.PP
-NOTE: extensive work has been done on this library since this document
-was origionally written. Please try to read des.doc from the libdes
-distribution since it is far more upto date and documents more of the
-functions. Libdes is now also being shipped as part of SSLeay, a
-general cryptographic library that amonst other things implements
-netscapes SSL protocoll. The most recent version can be found in
-SSLeay distributions.

+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This library contains a fast implementation of the DES encryption
+algorithm.
+
+There are two phases to the use of DES encryption. The first is the
+generation of a I<des_key_schedule> from a key, the second is the
+actual encryption. A des key is of type I<des_cblock>. This type is
+made from 8 characters with odd parity. The least significant bit in
+the character is the parity bit. The key schedule is an expanded form
+of the key; it is used to speed the encryption process.
+
+I<des_read_password> writes the string specified by prompt to the
+standard output, turns off echo and reads an input string from
+standard input until terminated with a newline. If verify is
+non-zero, it prompts and reads the input again and verifies that both
+entered passwords are the same. The entered string is converted into
+a des key by using the I<des_string_to_key> routine. The new key is
+placed in the I<des_cblock> that was passed (by reference) to the
+routine. If there were no errors, I<des_read_password> returns 0, -1
+is returned if there was a terminal error and 1 is returned for any
+other error.
+
+I<des_read_2password> operates in the same way as I<des_read_password>
+except that it generates two keys by using the I<des_string_to_2key>
+function.
+
+I<des_read_pw_string> is called by I<des_read_password> to read and
+verify a string from a terminal device. The string is returned in
+I<buf>. The size of I<buf> is passed to the routine via the I<length>
+parameter.
+
+I<des_string_to_key> converts a string into a valid des key.
+
+I<des_string_to_2key> converts a string into two valid des keys. This
+routine is best suited for used to generate keys for use with
+I<des_ecb3_encrypt>.
+
+I<des_random_key> returns a random key that is made of a combination
+of process id, time and an increasing counter.
+
+Before a des key can be used, it is converted into a
+I<des_key_schedule> via the I<des_set_key> routine. If the
+I<des_check_key> flag is non-zero, I<des_set_key> will check that the
+key passed is of odd parity and is not a week or semi-weak key. If
+the parity is wrong, then -1 is returned. If the key is a weak key,
+then -2 is returned. If an error is returned, the key schedule is not
+generated.
+
+I<des_key_sched> is another name for the I<des_set_key> function.
+
+The following routines mostly operate on an input and output stream of
+I<des_cblock>'s.
+
+I<des_ecb_encrypt> is the basic DES encryption routine that encrypts
+or decrypts a single 8-byte I<des_cblock> in I<electronic code book>
+mode. It always transforms the input data, pointed to by I<input>,
+into the output data, pointed to by the I<output> argument. If the
+I<encrypt> argument is non-zero (DES_ENCRYPT), the I<input>
+(cleartext) is encrypted in to the I<output> (ciphertext) using the
+key_schedule specified by the I<schedule> argument, previously set via
+I<des_set_key>. If I<encrypt> is zero (DES_DECRYPT), the I<input> (now
+ciphertext) is decrypted into the I<output> (now cleartext). Input
+and output may overlap. No meaningful value is returned.
+
+I<des_ecb3_encrypt> encrypts/decrypts the I<input> block by using
+triple ecb DES encryption. This involves encrypting the input with
+I<ks1>, decryption with the key schedule I<ks2>, and then encryption
+with the first again. This routine greatly reduces the chances of
+brute force breaking of DES and has the advantage of if I<ks1> and
+I<ks2> are the same, it is equivalent to just encryption using ecb
+mode and I<ks1> as the key.
+
+I<des_cbc_encrypt> encrypts/decrypts using the
+I<cipher-block-chaining> mode of DES. If the I<encrypt> argument is
+non-zero, the routine cipher-block-chain encrypts the cleartext data
+pointed to by the I<input> argument into the ciphertext pointed to by
+the I<output> argument, using the key schedule provided by the
+I<schedule> argument, and initialization vector provided by the
+I<ivec> argument. If the I<length> argument is not an integral
+multiple of eight bytes, the last block is copied to a temporary area
+and zero filled. The output is always an integral multiple of eight
+bytes. To make multiple cbc encrypt calls on a large amount of data
+appear to be one I<des_cbc_encrypt> call, the I<ivec> of subsequent
+calls should be the last 8 bytes of the output.
+
+I<des_3cbc_encrypt> encrypts/decrypts the I<input> block by using
+triple cbc DES encryption. This involves encrypting the input with
+key schedule I<ks1>, decryption with the key schedule I<ks2>, and then
+encryption with the first again. Two initialization vectors are
+required, I<ivec1> and I<ivec2>. Unlike I<des_cbc_encrypt>, these
+initialization vectors are modified by the subroutine. This routine
+greatly reduces the chances of brute force breaking of DES and has the
+advantage of if I<ks1> and I<ks2> are the same, it is equivalent to
+just encryption using cbc mode and I<ks1> as the key.
+
+I<des_pcbc_encrypt> encrypt/decrypts using a modified block chaining
+mode. It provides better error propagation characteristics than cbc
+encryption.
+
+I<des_cfb_encrypt> encrypt/decrypts using cipher feedback mode. This
+method takes an array of characters as input and outputs and array of
+characters. It does not require any padding to 8 character groups.
+Note: the ivec variable is changed and the new changed value needs to
+be passed to the next call to this function. Since this function runs
+a complete DES ecb encryption per numbits, this function is only
+suggested for use when sending small numbers of characters.
+
+I<des_ofb_encrypt> encrypt using output feedback mode. This method
+takes an array of characters as input and outputs and array of
+characters. It does not require any padding to 8 character groups.
+Note: the ivec variable is changed and the new changed value needs to
+be passed to the next call to this function. Since this function runs
+a complete DES ecb encryption per numbits, this function is only
+suggested for use when sending small numbers of characters.
+
+I<des_cbc_cksum> produces an 8 byte checksum based on the input stream
+(via cbc encryption). The last 4 bytes of the checksum is returned
+and the complete 8 bytes is placed in I<output>.
+
+I<des_quad_cksum> returns a 4 byte checksum from the input bytes. The
+algorithm can be iterated over the input, depending on I<out_count>,
+1, 2, 3 or 4 times. If I<output> is non-NULL, the 8 bytes generated
+by each pass are written into I<output>.
+
+I<des_enc_write> is used to write I<len> bytes to file descriptor
+I<fd> from buffer I<buf>. The data is encrypted via I<pcbc_encrypt>
+(default) using I<sched> for the key and I<iv> as a starting vector.
+The actual data send down I<fd> consists of 4 bytes (in network byte
+order) containing the length of the following encrypted data. The
+encrypted data then follows, padded with random data out to a multiple
+of 8 bytes.
+
+I<des_enc_read> is used to read I<len> bytes from file descriptor
+I<fd> into buffer I<buf>. The data being read from I<fd> is assumed to
+have come from I<des_enc_write> and is decrypted using I<sched> for
+the key schedule and I<iv> for the initial vector. The
+I<des_enc_read/des_enc_write> pair can be used to read/write to files,
+pipes and sockets. I have used them in implementing a version of
+rlogin in which all data is encrypted.
+
+I<des_rw_mode> is used to specify the encryption mode to use with
+I<des_enc_read> and I<des_end_write>. If set to I<DES_PCBC_MODE> (the
+default), des_pcbc_encrypt is used. If set to I<DES_CBC_MODE>
+des_cbc_encrypt is used. These two routines and the variable are not
+part of the normal MIT library.
+
+I<des_set_odd_parity> sets the parity of the passed I<key> to odd.
+This routine is not part of the standard MIT library.
+
+I<des_is_weak_key> returns 1 is the passed key is a weak key (pick
+again :-), 0 if it is ok. This routine is not part of the standard
+MIT library.
+
+I<crypt> is a replacement for the normal system crypt. It is much
+faster than the system crypt.
