Is there an OpenCL implementation of the unix crypt(3) function?

Question

I want to use the unix crypt function in an OpenCL program. Does something like that already exist or will I have to translate it on my own?

Answer 1

You've probably found an answer by now, but in case anyone else comes here from a search, John The Ripper is open source and has OpenCL acceleration for several hashing algorithms, including the 3DES used in BSD crypt().
