This has to be installed and an alias set up for your use.
On Solaris it should be located in /usr/bin/

Try running this code to find it on your box ....

Simple: don't. Check to see if you have the openssl command installed.

If it's properly installed, you should be able to type "man enc" to get the parameters to "openssl enc".

For most stuff, you can use the Blowfish symmetric algorithm, it's very good.

From the examples:

openssl bf -e -a -salt -in file.txt -out file.bf

And to decrypt:

openssl bf -d -a -salt -in file.bf -out file.txt

Definitely poke around the man pages of openssl. It's a very complete set of utilities for encryption and digital signing. http://www.openssl.org/
