Ok Tim Michael, thanks,
But... what has the fact that freeBSD has openSSl build in to do with this errormessage? Do you mean it has already a CRS file generated somewhere for somebody to sign, and generated my own private key at installing Every openssl (even the one in usr/bin) version gives me the errormessage, when i run "openssl req -new -nodes -keyout private.key -out public.csr" Is there a different way to call for a different crypt method? Is RSA than the default method? How do i know which one i am allowed to use and am i free to choose one? This goes unfortunately beyond my comprehension. I know how to execute some commands and give some arguments to try out, but if one off you has some more advise what might be going on it would be much appriciated ofcourse. masha danki, Dirk --- Tim Pushor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > IIRC RSARef was RSA Labs reference implementation > library.
