I'd suggest you look at a recent OpenSSL 0.9.9 snapshot. The PVK functionality is now built into the relevant utilities. There is an -inform PVK option in the rsa and dsa utilities. The OpenSSL PVK functionality is a superset of that provided by my old pvk utility. Let me know if that works on 64 bit linux, if not I'll look into fixing it. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson.
