in reply to DES ECB mode encryption

Hello v4169sgr,

As AppleFritter pointed out, you really need to have the tools in order to complete your task.

Well because you said that you are a basic user I think you will find this analytic tutorial How to install CPAN modules into ActivePerl very useful. But again you need to have administrative rights.

About installing modules using strawberry Perl you can do it like this from the DOS window:

perl -MCPAN -e shell install Crypt::ECB

Alternatively, you can also download the .tar.gz from CPAN, unzip it and install as you would in Unix:

cd Crypt-ECB-1.45 perl Makefile.PL dmake dmake test dmake install

I found that some people mentioned that they have problems with the nmake command so in that case use the dmake command. More information about the problem you can read here (using dmake instead of nmake on Windows).

I hope this can help you, after you get administrative rights.
