It is very unlikely that an OpenSSL PKCS#7 structure will be incompatible with a CMS implementation. If you use, for example, PKCS7_sign() this can never happen. You could see if OpenSSLs smime utility can verify the signature from Java and vice versa. If they will then there's a problem with your OpenSSL code. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson.
