This is the code i've founded on internet, i don't know if the output
is right or wrong, i only know that php basic auth don't works with
this encryption....

crypt uses DES, but crypt has nothing to do with Basic Authentication.

If you need the crypt functionality in Java then look at:

http://www.dynamic.net.au/christos/crypt/

crypt do use DES, but are not a simple DES.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crypt_%28Unix%29

says:

#The traditional implementation uses a modified form of the DES
#algorithm. The user's password is truncated to eight characters, and
#those are coerced down to only 7-bits each; this forms the 56-bit DES
#key. That key is then used to encrypt an all-bits-zero block, and then
#the ciphertext is encrypted again with the same key, and so on for a
#total of 25 DES encryptions. A 12-bit salt is used to perturb the
#encryption algorithm, so standard DES implementations can't be used to
#implement crypt(). The salt and the final ciphertext are encoded into a
#printable string in a form of base 64.
