Hi

The package mcrypt is now available with the Cygwin distribution:

 o http://mcrypt.sourceforge.net/ (Homepage)


DESCRIPTION:
============

MCrypt is a replacement for the old crypt() package and crypt(1) command, with extensions.
It allows developers to use a wide range of encryption functions, without making drastic changes
to their code. It allows users to encrypt files or data streams without having to be cryptographers.

Enjoy
    Volker

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your
system.  Once you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select "Utils"
and then click on the appropriate fields until the above announced
version numbers appear if they are not displayed already.

If your mirror doesn't yet have the latest version of this package after
24 hours, you can either continue to wait for that site to be updated or
you can try to find another mirror.

Please send questions or comments to the Cygwin mailing list at:

I would appreciate if you would use this mailing list rather than
emailing me directly.  This includes ideas and comments about the setup
utility or Cygwin in general.

If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing
list is the appropriate place.
