Does someone have any insight into the assumptions made with the Rijandael
algorithm - I'm trying to encrypt documents on a PC platform and decrypt
them on a Mac OS (and vice-versa) without success.  How is the IV field
created by default on .Net2 implementation?  Is there any known issues with
using the .Net2 implemenation in a cross platform manner?

Are you using the same iv and key on both sides.  I would verify this quick.
