I am in a situation where text files will be produced in a java/unix
environment and need to be encrypted before they are sent over via ftp to a
windows/.net environment. If they are encrypted with say Triple DES at the
Unix end would I have any problems decrypting them at the windows end using
the tools built into .Net (obviously assuming I used the same algorithm to
decrypt them).

Hi Scott,

There won't be a problem if we use same algorithms and key to decrypt in
..NET. And .NET framework has many build-in support for symmetric algorithms
