Ok well if the EVP interface and the RSA interface pretty much do the same thing I would imagine that the php openssl_sign and openssl_private_encrypt functions will generate a signature/encrypted data that EVP can verify/decrypt?
At the moment I can get openssl_sign and RSA_sign to generate the same output. ~Shaun -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Goetz Babin-Ebell Sent: Tuesday, November 25, 2008 1:52 PM To: openssl-users@openssl.org Subject: Re: sign/verify kicking my ass -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Shaun wrote: | I'm really going to be using php to encrypt/sign ( | openssl_private_encrypt(), openssl_sign() ) I don't see any EVP functions | from php, Hm.
