Hi,

I am attempting to utilise the OpenSSL RSA functionality to verify UN
standard Edifact files with AUTACK messages containing a signature which has
been generated using the SHA-1 digest. Also I need to produce a
corresponding outgoing AUTACK with an embedded signature attached to the Ack
or Nak message.

I have been able to sign and verify locally using the SSL software but my
problem is the intermediate signature does not match that expected by the
3rd parties we deal with. Indeed they do not match examples given by the
Edifact documentation in the worked examples. I get the expected digest
values but the RSA  generated signature is completely different.

The Edifact documentation says the RSA verification should comply with
ISO9796-1. I can find no mention of ISO standards at all in the release so
maybe you can confirm whether or not this might be the problem.

Thanks in advance,



Bill Cotton
