Here's the background on the problem I'm having: For an upcoming project, I need to store some encrypted data in a cookie which has me looking at using the CIPHER MI instruction to do this. I started by looking at a few examples that do an MD5 hash (which doesn't work for me since I need to decrypt it) and, of course, Scott Klement's RC4 example. I did a little bit of research into using RC4 and it looks like it's easy to make implementation mistakes that reduce it's security so I'm wanting to use something better (or at least not as easy to screw up), specifically, I want to use AES. I spent a little bit of time working on this today but I'm getting this error when I run my program: "Requested function not valid or is not available on the machine.". To double check what's installed, I ran Scott's program that lists the installed ciphers and 128 bit AES was listed. I know the crypto providers are installed and we're on V5R1. Anyone have any ideas? Here's the code: H DFTACTGRP(*NO) BNDDIR('QC2LE') option(*SRCSTMT: *NODEBUGIO) H ACTGRP(*NEW) Dcipher PR extproc('_CIPHER') D receiver * D control 96A D source * DAES_Controls DS D FunctionID 2A D DataLen 5U 0 D Operation 1A D Mode 1A D BlockLength 3U 0 D MAClength 3U 0 D InitVector 32A D Reserved 7A D KeyOption 1A D KeySchedulePtr * D Key 32A DKeySchedule S 1088A DOP_ENCRYPT C const(x'00') DOP_DECRYPT C const(x'01') DOP_MAC C const(x'02') DMODE_ECB C const(x'00') DMODE_CBC C const(x'01') DKEYOPT_SCHEDULE C const(x'00') DKEYOPT_16BYTE C const(x'10') DKEYOPT_24BYTE C const(x'18') DKEYOPT_32BYTE C const(x'20') DFUNCID_AES C const(x'0015') DTestData S 32A inz('Secret Text!')
