linux compatibility

[bitserv]

i need to generate an encrypted archive (zip with blowfish) on a linux server which the user wants to open with power archiver. so far i was unsuccesful using openssl or mcrypt. the message is always: "this is not a valid archive".

succesful experience anyone?

can you create zip aes archive?

[bitserv]

crypting a zip file by using
mcrypt -a rijndael-128
leads to the same result. PA does not recognize the resulting file as a valid archive

you can not create aes zip archive like that of course. You need zip utility for linux that supports zip aes standard. I am not sure, but maybe PACL will work under wine or something similar?

you are right. there seems not to be any capable utility on linux for that. wine (version 0.9.12) worked for PACL. that way i got my problem solved. thanks
