SYNOPSIS



    use Net::SSH::Perl::Cipher;

    print $cipher->encrypt($plaintext);



DESCRIPTION

Net::SSH::Perl::Cipher::RC4 provides RC4 (arcfour) encryption support for the SSH2 protocol implementation in Net::SSH::Perl. Unlike the other Net::SSH::Perl::Cipher objects, the RC4 module relies on no outside libraries; the RC4 algorithm is implemented entirely in this module.

RC4 uses key sizes of 16 bytes.
