Thanks to Geoff and Jeff for the pointers.
I used an online dumpasn (http://lapo.it/asn1js/) to check whether
the public key is encoded correctly and it seems to be fine(it
contains two integers).
Any other ideas on what i should look for to solve this would be
greatly appreciated.
thanks,
john
PS. The sequence i posted originally was not accurate, here is the
whole sequence for the public key
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
