Just what you need for secure key mangling.

The man pages for the various subcommands available via the openssl
binary have improved tremendously since the first version of that
article went online seven years ago.
OTOH, I know that the openssl binary was originally intended to be
nothing more than an example of how to use the various features of the
OpenSSL libraries. It wasn't intended to be the nearly indispensible
utility it has become, which may help to explain the originally
marginal documentation that accompanied it.
Still, it can be hard to figure out exactly which man page to consult
for various tasks. The openssl package that ships with CentOS 6
includes 53 man pages. (That's not the openssl-devel package, just the
base package!) So a cookbook-style article is still worthwhile, even
if the man pages now to many more how-to examples than they did back
in 2004.
