Hello!
Could you help me in decoding a signature with public key in command line.
The purpose is that I could compare the result with a fingerprint
calculated from a document (with a hash-function ie. md5), because it
would be used on a web-page, and I think nobody wanna send a private
document to the server, just a fingerprint. I thought that I compare the
fingerprint, and the decoded signature (it should be a fingerprint, too),
and if it is the same, than the document was signed the corresponding
private key.
This command works, but only with the document, not the fingerprint:
openssl dgst -verify pub.key -signature signature.txt document.txt
thanks:
Peter
ps.: if it is possible only in C, which function should I use?
