Hi I have a big problem.I've tried for 2 days but I haven't been able to solve the problem yet. I need to implement dot-net DES encryption in php site. I tired several solutions and the following code is the best that I've seen. But it doesn't work perfect either. ---------------- Header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=test.txt"); Header("Content-type: text/plain"); $key = "alidfsdf"; $iv = "asghasdr"; $buffer = "0736f6a24766866a60e5a300e6f067aef5c2428a7c5ba59b1c2af2ec9289aaad6d7fd8345910fac94b99311d0487a02080665ed5a5f48b9a35093eed16eb8c38\nsdfgh"; $td = mcrypt_module_open('tripledes', '', 'cbc', ''); $key .= substr($key, 0, mcrypt_enc_get_key_size($td)); $block = mcrypt_get_block_size('tripledes', 'cbc'); $len = strlen($buffer); $padding = $block - ($len % $block); $buffer .= str_repeat(chr($padding),$padding); if (mcrypt_generic_init($td, $key, $iv) != -1){ $Result = mcrypt_generic($td, $buffer); mcrypt_generic_deinit($td); mcrypt_module_close($td); } echo $Result; ---------------- this is the output of this php program: âØPyÂfØt5OâWÛØKÚÛjÂÂLØ [;ÂnâØÃ^uH ÃLÚÂgâØâw~2ÚC cØÃIÙ7ââÃGâpÚØ:Â1ÙØ qØYâzMÙÚâÙ %`ÙÙØØufË ÙTâINÃÃ#>!ÃÂÃ<ÂØÂâØ2ØØâÂÙ8% Output from c# application is here(using PaddingMode.PKCS7 and other default settings): âØPyÂfØt5OâWÛØKÚÛjÂÂLØ [;ÂnâØÃ^uH ÃLÚÂgâØâw~2ÚC cØÃIÙ7ââÃGâpÚØ:Â1ÙØ qØYâzMÙÚâÙ %`ÙÙØØufË ÙTâINÃÃ#>!ÃÂÃ<ÂØÂâØ2ØjÂÂn(VÂà 2Ø Â However they are like each other. But As you can see, the 16 last characters are different. I think there is a problem in $buffer .= str_repeat(*chr($padding)* ,$padding); Please help me. I'm going to deliver it tomorrow. Thanks for any help.
