    Hi All,

    Does anybody know what the 1.2 implementation of Bouncy Castle does
    with "DESede//NoPadding" since the 1.4 implementation could not deal
    with this and by substituting "DESede/ECB/NoPadding", we have got
    cryptogram computed by the server that is not equal with the one
    computed by the client.

    The idea is to re-use the code that used to process
    "DESede//NoPadding" successfully in 1.2 in 1.4, so that we still can
    live with "DESede//NoPadding" in 1.4.

    Quite a challenge huh !

    Michael
