    Subject: Which encryption method is identical to Unix crypt()

JCE Group,

I am working on an application that needs to store an encrypted password =
in a database. The password is normally encrypted using the Unix crypt() =
command, however, coding this application using Java and Serlvets, I would =
like to be able to encrypt the password through the JCE. Can you tell me =
which algorithm to use to mimick the crypt() function?

Thanks,
Chris B.
