You can have practical limits though (for example, if the user decides to store the certificate in a 4k or 8k smartcard). -- Erwann ABALEA [EMAIL PROTECTED] RSA PGP Key ID: 0x2D0EABD5 - If at first you don't succeed; Blame everyone else __ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List[EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Somewhere Peter Gutman has a cert that includes a GIF of his cat. I think it's one of the DN components. /r$ -- Zolera Systems, Securing web services (XML, SOAP, Signatures, Encryption) http://www.zolera.com __ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List[EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
