Thanks for the clarification. So I've tried using "pkeyutl" to sign data using a private key then
verify the signature with following command: openssl pkeyutl -verify -in file -sigfile sig -inkey key.pem openssl pkeyutl -sign -in file -inkey key.pem -out sig But I am getting eror pkeyutl is an invalid command: openssl:Error: 'pkeyutl' is an invalid command. I am using version : OpenSSL 0.9.8b 04 May 2006 On 6/25/07, Michael Sierchio <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
