Could not initialize mcrypt

I have the latest version of XAMPP installed on Windows XP Pro SP2. I
am trying to use mcrypt with rijnndael-128 on ecb:
"
$cr = mcrypt_module_o pen('rijndael-128','','ecb',' ') or
die('<br><br>Co uld not open Module<br><br>' );
$iv = mcrypt_create_i v(mcrypt_enc_ge t_iv_size($cr), MCRYPT_RAND)
or die('<br><br>Co uld not create iv<br><br>');
mcrypt_generic_ init($cr, $key, $iv) or die('<br><br>Co uld not
initialize mcrypt<br><br>' );
$remix = mcrypt_generic( $td, $mix) or die('<br><br>Co uld not make
a remix<br><br>') ;
"
(The above code is inside a function)
all the variables are ok. When i run the script, it returns "Could not
initialize mcrypt". Why is it crashing there?

Hi, I'm getting some strange errors that I cannot pin down: Warning: mcrypt_generic_init(): Iv size incorrect; supplied length: 7, needed: 8 in...... This is strange because the data is encrypted, inserted into the databse, then later retrieved and decrypted with the necessary hash and ivector keys.

Long story short. I want to use Mac OS/X and PHP. I have a db with passwords stored under Linux using the crypt("foo", "$1$".$salt."$); scheme. This means that crypt should execute a CRYPT_MD5 password hash. I know that Mac OS/X only supports the two DES'. So is there a way I can use mcrypt, or mhash or ANY library to reproduce php's CRYPT_MD5...
