DPAPI & .NET

[AtW]

oops sorry I forgot about this thread, I think I had it before too, looks like you figured it out as well

[scotspine]

got it...anybody know a good wig shop!

[scotspine]

if i don't encrypt the iv, it works, if i encrypt, it falls over. yet i successfully rebuild the iv from decrypt!!

[scotspine]

but key size is 16bytes and iv size is 8 bytes

[scotspine]

Specified initialization vector (IV) does not match the block size for this algorithm

What's the exact error message? I had some problems in .NET with triple DES too and vaguely remember something like this happening.

anyone used this to retrieve a key from the registry? i have a DPAPI encrypted key in the registry but when i try to retrieve it as a byte array for the IV for 3DES i get a length error...going grey and hairless
