There is an example in OpenSSL. (I'm using 0.9.6c) Check out the file apps\apps.c and look for the functions load_cert and load_key. These will read the PKCS12 file and return either and X509 certificate (X509*) or a private key envelope (EVP_PKEY*). Once you have them, you just need to call

HI, We have openssl generating an RSA 1024/1001 key, using openssl the routines produce a X509 encoded public key of 159 bytes. This encoded key is successfully decoded and read into an IAIK key. If you then try to get the encoded public key out of the IAIK key you get a byte array of 161

Hi, You must have a CA certificate to be able to sign other certificates. Did you get a CA certificate from VeriSign? You do this in openssl by specifying v3_ca extensions ( as per the demoCA openssl.cnf file ). /Pankaj. -Original Message- From: Benoit Goarin To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I don't know about regulations in France, but AFAIK, this limitation applies to symetric keys, not private/public keys. I think 384/512 bit RSA keys provide the same level of security as 64 bit DES keys. Hope that it helps, Regards, Alejandro Rusell -Mensaje original- De: Jason
