>It says that the commerce server supports (among others) DES and DES3 >(same as 3DES?). They list the key sizes as 64 and 192 bits >respectively. My question is, isn't DES 56 bits? (with an 8 bit salt >that would be 64 I guess), but isn't DES3 112 bits, not 192? DES keys are specified as 64 bits, of which 8 bits provide odd parity. The 192 bits would specify three independent keys (not triple DES)
