Hello,

I am interested in using ECC or more probably ECDSA to verify a string
transmitted by a server. The way I'd like it to work is that the
server will create any arbitrary text string. It'll take the string
and hash it and then calculate a signature using some private key.
Then it will transmit the string and the signature and I'd like the
client to be able to verify that the string and signature match using
only the public key information. My only other requirement is that I
need to be able to generate new private/public key pairs from time to
time. I also need fairly short key sizes (less than 160 bits).

>From my limited knowledge, it sounds like ECDSA is what I want.
Unfortunately, I am not very math savvy and I start to get lost once
people start bringing up the formulas. I am also having a somewhat
difficult time understanding how all the Crypto++ code works with
regards to ECDSA.

So does anyone have any example code that shows this kind of
functionality?

Thanks!
