Hello Dr. Henson,
I would like to know how to BER encode the public key and put in the
certificate request... As I understand from ur replies, it is difficult to
do the above in the current release Openssl 0.9.6..
Is it possible to use some routines taken from 0.9.7 and use them with
0.9.6. If so can u help me in finding the correct functions from the
library... If not please help me to do the same with 9.6..
Regards..
Suram

DER is acceptable because a DER encoding is a special case of BER
encoding.
