What you put in SHA_CTX should be irrelevant as long as the entire context is contained in a flat structure (so it can be memcpy'ed). If you hang structures off the end that will cause problems unless you allow for that at the EVP level with the "copy" function. I'd suggest you dump the input to your implementation (in the cases it produces errors) to a file and check that against OpenSSLs version. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson.
