-.SH NAME
-xencrypt, xdecrypt, passwd2des \- RFS password encryption
-.SH LIBRARY
-Standard C library
-.RI ( libc ", " \-lc )
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-.B "#include <rpc/des_crypt.h>"
-.P
-.BI "void passwd2des(char " *passwd ", char *" key ");"
-.P
-.BI "int xencrypt(char *" secret ", char *" passwd ");"

-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.BR WARNING :
-Do not use these functions in new code.
-They do not achieve any type of acceptable cryptographic security guarantees.
-.P
-The function
-.BR passwd2des ()
-takes a character string
-.I passwd
-of arbitrary length and fills a character array
-.I key
-of length 8.
-The array
-.I key
-is suitable for use as DES key.
-It has odd parity set in bit 0 of each byte.
-Both other functions described here use this function to turn their
-argument
-.I passwd
-into a DES key.
-.P
-The
-.BR xencrypt ()
-function takes the ASCII character string
-.I secret
-given in hex,
-.\" (over the alphabet 0123456789abcdefABCDEF),
-which must have a length that is a multiple of 16,
-encrypts it using the DES key derived from
-.I passwd
-by
-.BR passwd2des (),
-and outputs the result again in
-.I secret
-as a hex string
-.\" (over the alphabet 0123456789abcdef)
-of the same length.
-.P
-The
-.BR xdecrypt ()
-function performs the converse operation.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-The functions
-.BR xencrypt ()
-and
-.BR xdecrypt ()
-return 1 on success and 0 on error.
