I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to do. Are you suggesting that you'll have submitted more than one signing request at a time, so you'll have _many_ private keys lying around and you don't know which one is associated with which response from the server? If so, perhaps the X509_check_private_key() function in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c may be relevant to you? You could iterate over the available private keys, looking for one which matches the public key in the certificate you get back from the server. Or you could just keep better track of your outstanding requests? :) -- David Woodhouse Open Source Technology Centre david.woodho...@intel.com Intel Corporation ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
