Re: Compiling openssl for linux-mipsel

I'm not sure how to take the question. It's a symbol that's normally found in libcrypto.so. It's a function that free's an RSA*. It's part of the support for RSA public key crypto, which undergirds most stuff you might want to do with OpenSSL. If this is the case, then I definately need to

Generating certificates for use with elliptic curve crypto

2009-07-21 Thread hdf sdesdh
Does anyone know how to approach generating certificates to be used with Elliptic Curve Cryptography (TLS) and OpenVPN? The normal generation process for RSA certificates does not work, so it looks like there is a different procedure (as with Apache and ECC certificates). I compiled openvpn

Encrypting CA keys
