Well I have a few questions here so hopefully I can get this straight,
if I'm lucky.

Certificates - Now I have worked with RSA certificates, but if I wish to
do DSA instead of RSA signatures I need to create DSA certificates
right? If so anyone have examples laying around?

Encoding - Now from some testing I did with PKCS7 structures before if
you DER encode instead of PEM encode the data it appears to be much
smaller.  Is that correct? Now if you want to send a certificate to some
one is  it possible to send it DER encoded?  Do you create the cert DER
encoded in the first place?  If so how is that done?  Then how is it
read in? I have only used PEM type functions to read in a x509
cert/private keys.

Signing data - can I use the sam EVP functions that I did before to sign
with RSA to do DSA?

Any help would be appraised.

Frank
