Note Submitter: moquist at majen dot net ---- The code from "jizz" is pretty helpful, though I found the $last_char logic to be insufficient. The following function is working great for me to decrypt 3DES strings from .NET. <?php function decrypt($password) { $key = 'some key'; $iv = 'some iv'; $cipher = mcrypt_module_open(MCRYPT_TRIPLEDES,'','cbc',''); mcrypt_generic_init($cipher, $key, $iv); $decrypted = mdecrypt_generic($cipher,$bytes); mcrypt_generic_deinit($cipher); for($i=0; $i < strlen($decrypted); $i++) { if(ord($decrypted[$i]) <= 8) { $decrypted = substr($decrypted, 0, $i); break; } } return $decrypted; } ?>
