I've been reading through Schneier book and noticed that you have (at least) 2 public key crypto options, RSA and DSA. i noticed that openssl supports both RSA and DSA but when i figured out how to get mod_ssl to work with DSA. under "apache-modssl" on MARC, i found the following message: (which i edited) http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-modssl&m=92366419612396&w=2 List: apache-modssl Subject: Re: Apache_mod_ssl server certificate From: "Ralf S. Engelschall" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 1999-04-09 13:10:05 Currently you can only use RSA Private Keys with mod_ssl, so you've no choice. Although in the near future support for DSA/DH cert/keys will be supported... Ralf S. Engelschall Is this still the case? I'm trying to build a client and server in perl that uses SSL, but doesn't have to use RSA. Has anyone else created a SSL client and server pair that doesn't use RSA? If DSA support isn't in mod_ssl right now, are there any plans to add it? Would adding DSA support be non-trivial?
