The documents on "devmo" are rather cursory. The most complete documentation is still on www.mozilla.org, IMO. > So far it looks like PK11_CipherOp is the corresponding function that I > need to use.

I can't answer your question about corresponding functions, but as for "how to" on using PK11_CipherOp, I can point you to a couple of pages that I found by going to www.mozilla.org and typing PK11_CipherOp in the search box on that page. http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/sample-code/sample2.html http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/tech-notes/tn5.html _______________________________________________ dev-tech-crypto mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto
