<appsummary>The Crypto Application</appsummary>
<description>
<p>The purpose of the Crypto application is to provide message
digest and DES encryption for SMNPv3. It provides computation of
message digests MD5 and SHA, and CBC-DES encryption and
decryption.</p>

<section>
<title>Configuration</title>
<p>The following environment configuration parameters are defined
for the Crypto application. Refer to application(3) for more
information about configuration parameters.

<item>
<p>Causes debug information to be written to standard

<title>OpenSSL libraries</title>
<p>The current implementation of the Erlang Crypto application is
based on the <em>OpenSSL</em> package version 0.9.8 or higher.
There are source and binary releases on the web.
</p>
<p>Source releases of OpenSSL can be downloaded from the <url href="http://www.openssl.org">OpenSSL</url> project home page,
or mirror sites listed there.
</p>
<p>The same URL also contains links to some compiled binaries and
libraries of OpenSSL (see the <c>Related/Binaries</c> menu) of
which the <url href="http://www.shininglightpro.com/search.php?searchname=Win32+OpenSSL">Shining Light Productions Win32 and OpenSSL</url> pages are of
interest for the Win32 user.
</p>
<p>For some Unix flavours there are binary packages available
on the net.
</p>
<p>If you cannot find a suitable binary OpenSSL package, you
have to fetch an OpenSSL source release and compile it.
</p>
<p>You then have to compile and install the library
<c>libcrypto.so</c> (Unix), or the library <c>libeay32.dll</c>
(Win32).
</p>
<p>For Unix The <c>crypto_drv</c> dynamic driver is delivered linked
to OpenSSL libraries in <c>/usr/local/lib</c>, but the default
dynamic linking will also accept libraries in <c>/lib</c> and
<c>/usr/lib</c>.
</p>
<p>If that is not applicable to the particular Unix operating
system used, the example <c>Makefile</c> in the Crypto
<c>priv/obj</c> directory, should be used as a basis for
relinking the final version of the port program.
</p>
<p>For <c>Win32</c> it is only required that the library can be
found from the <c>PATH</c> environment variable, or that they
reside in the appropriate <c>SYSTEM32</c> directory; hence no
particular relinking is need. Hence no example <c>Makefile</c>
for Win32 is provided.</p>
