Thanks for your reply.
I have crypt command. It is installed but it looks like it is different than
the unix version. 
In all Unix version, you can issue the following command to encrypt a file.
The crypt command in cygwin does not accept file names.

crypt mypassword < filename > encryptedfilename

where filename is the name of file you want to encrypt.

Specifically, crypt is in the "crypt" package, under the "libs" category.

There is a crypt for cygwin.  It is packaged as a cygwin package.  If you do

not have it, it is because you did not install it through setup.exe.

Hello All,
I am looking for crypt command similar to unix crypt command. 

In Unix, I could do
crypt password < filename > encryptedfilename

but the same thing does not work in cygwin.
I have asked this question before and did not get any satisfactory response.

Please atleast tell me, whether it is possible to encrypt and decrypt a file
using some other command.

Thanks for your help.

Sanjay
