Thank you, but that looks like a serious set-back in time... First I would like to know if others haven't added that support yet? (well, I would not like to assume) It would be a lot faster for a person, who added support for aes. Also there is a sample program, which is doing accelerated sha1: http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/padlock/phe_sum.c So you say, I have to do all that myself? ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
