Re: [Passwordsafe-devel] Symbian port?

[Joe C. <joe...@vi...>]

Thanks for the pointers, I've got these documents now.
I'm starting to play with BlowfishJ to try and decrypt the current (v2) 
archives.
I'm confused about how I use the key in conjunction with the random 8 
byte block
and the SHA-1 bit. BlowfishJ gives an option for either ECB or CBC too, 
with the
CBC option taking an extra parameter.

Sorry if this is really dense (or I should RTFM), but can someone tell 
me which bits of data go where?

Data I can see...
password key
(from the file format)
8 byte random block
SHA-1 block (how big is this btw?)

What BlowfishJ wants:
key
CBCIV parameter (if I use CBC) - no idea what this is!

I've tried a simple attempt with ECB but that doesn't appear to work so 
I obviously
need to use the random block somehow... Is this the CBC?

Thanks

Joe
