Ahluwalia,> my understanding correct? Thanks again. No. That's
not what I said at all. All I said is that des3-cbc-md5 does not
work the same way as des3-cbc-sha1. One of the ways in which it
does not work the same way is that it ignores the keyusage input
to the crypto profile operations.
I have specifically made no positive statement about how it works; I
don't remember. I remember some of the reasons it was not
standardized, that's all.
