Hi, OpenSSL might benefit implementing secret-sharing and related algorithms, maybe step-by-step. Attached is an implementation of share of private exponent calculation provided share of (p-1)(q-1). Well, it is demonstrated here without shares but still does not involve inverse unknown modulo.

Nonblocking again. Don't want OpenSSL to do any networking.

2000-08-20 Thread Dan Kegel
I'm trying to integrate OpenSSL into a nonblocking server that already has a firm idea of how it wants to do its networking. In other words, I want to use OpenSSL, but *do not* want OpenSSL doing any networking for me. I also don't want to use any huge, ungainly abstractions such as BIO pairs.

In any event, if we design the proper underlying data structures to accomodate what we want - then all we need to do is pass this data structure into the proper state engine and the state engine can find the parameters the low level subs need and call them. It can even do this in a
