There are two phases to the use of DES encryption. The first is the
generation of a I<DES_key_schedule> from a key, the second is the
actual encryption. A DES key is of type I<DES_cblock>. This type is
actual encryption. A DES key is of type I<DES_cblock>. This type
consists of 8 bytes with odd parity. The least significant bit in
each byte is the parity bit. The key schedule is an expanded form of
the key; it is used to speed the encryption process.

DES_ede3_cbc_encrypt() implements outer triple CBC DES encryption with
three keys. This means that each DES operation inside the CBC mode is
an C<C=E(ks3,D(ks2,E(ks1,M)))>. This mode is used by SSL.
C<C=E(ks3,D(ks2,E(ks1,M)))>. This mode is used by SSL.
The DES_ede2_cbc_encrypt() macro implements two-key Triple-DES by
reusing I<ks1> for the final encryption. C<C=E(ks1,D(ks2,E(ks1,M)))>.
This form of Triple-DES is used by the RSAREF library.

DES_cfb_encrypt() encrypts/decrypts using cipher feedback mode. This

be passed to the next call to this function. Since this function runs
a complete DES ECB encryption per I<numbits>, this function is only
suggested for use when sending small numbers of characters.

DES_cfb64_encrypt()

implements CFB mode of DES with 64-bit feedback. Why is this
useful you ask? Because this routine will allow you to encrypt an
arbitrary number of bytes, no 8 byte padding. Each call to this
arbitrary number of bytes, without 8 byte padding. Each call to this
routine will encrypt the input bytes to output and then update ivec
and num. num contains 'how far' we are though ivec. If this does
not make much sense, read more about cfb mode of DES :-).
