.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
\fBpencrypt\fP will apply an encryption algorithm to a file (or multiple files),
|
|
creating an encrypted version of each file which can only be recovered using
|
|
pdecrypt and the same password that was supplied to \fBpencrypt\fP. The
|
|
compressed versions are written to a file with the same name as the original,
|
|
but the extension .pe added to the filename, and the original file is removed
|
|
(unless the version with \fB\-o\fP is used, in which case you can encrypt only
|
|
one file, you specify the destination file name, and the original file is not
|
|
removed).
|
|
.PP
|
|
Note that if you are adding files to a Panda multifile (.mf file) with the
|
|
.BR multify (1)
|
|
command, it is not necessary to encrypt them separately; \fBmultify\fP has an
|
|
inline encryption option.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBpdecrypt\fP reverses the operation of a previous \fBpdecrypt\fP command.
|
|
It decrypts the contents of the named source file(s) and removes the .pe
|
|
extension. The encryption algorithm need not be specified; it can be
|
|
determined by examining the header of each encrypted file. The password
|
|
must match the encryption password exactly. If it does not, an error may
|
|
or may not be reported; but the file will not be decrypted correctly even
|
|
if no error is reported.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-p " \"password\"
|
|
Specifies the password to use for encryption. There are no
|
|
restrictions on the password length or contents, but longer passwords
|
|
are more secure. If this is not specified, the user is prompted from
|
|
standard input.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The following options are only available to \fBpencrypt\fP. These settings
|
|
are automatically read from the header of the encrypted file by \fBpdecrypt\fP.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-t
|
|
Read the file as a text file. This will automatically convert universal
|
|
end-of-line characters into a newline character, ascii 10.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-a " \"algorithm\"
|
|
Specifies the particular encryption algorithm to use. The complete
|
|
set of available algorithms is defined by the current version of
|
|
OpenSSL. The default algorithm is taken from the encryption-
|
|
algorithm config variable.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-k " key_length
|
|
Specifies the key length, in bits, for the selected encryption
|
|
algorithm. This only makes sense for those algorithms that support
|
|
a variable key length. The default value is taken from the
|
|
\fBencryption\-key\-length\fP config variable.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-i " iteration_count
|
|
Specifies the number of times the password is hashed to generate
|
|
a key. The only purpose of this is to make it computationally
|
|
more expensive for an attacker to search the key space exhaustively.
|
|
This should be a multiple of 1,000 and should not exceed about 65
|
|
million; the value 0 indicates just one application of the hashing
|
|
algorithm. The default value is taken from the
|
|
\fBencryption\-iteration\-count\fP config variable.
