Another reason CPAN is cool by arturo (Vicar) on Dec 05, 2000 at 03:50 UTC
By way of an update, I emailed Dave Paris, `Crypt::DES`'s maintainer, he said both that he was aware of the problem in 2.01 and that v2.03 is on its way to CPAN soon. CPAN: not just good modules, good people! Philosophy can be made out of anything. Or less -- Jerry A. Fodor	[reply] [d/l]

DES is limited to 64-bit keys by design. See http://www.aci.net/kalliste/des.htm for description of algorithm. -- Ilya Martynov (http://martynov.org/)	[reply]
