I'm changing subject lines.  Please try to make your message Subject lines
descriptive enough to make it easier to find later.

Also, next time, try first searching for these modules in Python's Cheese
Shop code repository.  It's the spiritual successor to the Vaults of
Parnassus, and is steadily becoming very usable.

Yes, there are implementations of those algorithms available.  For
example:

    http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/pyDes/

shows a pure Python implementation of DES.


There's also a nice packaging of those algorithms in the Python
Cryptography Toolkit:

Good luck to you.
