Al, Welcome to it. You're experiencing what most of us in the states have found... dealing with RSA a) is confusing as hell and b) blows dead moose. They certainly haven't shifted gears to think about mod_ssl or OSS development in general. For what it's worth, the first viable opportunity to drop my dependence on RSA algorithms will be where I break from them. I hate their business practices, I hate their policies, and I hate their shortsighted mindset. dsp On Thursday, November 19, 1998 2:15 PM, Albert Etienne [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] wrote: > Maybe I haven't done my homework here, but.
