This might be a nonsensical question, and if so it wouldn't be my first foolish question here:
Is it possible or appropriate to add a timestamp object (RFC 3161) to a PKCS#7 signature during the signature's creation? It is *not* possible for me to make the timestamp the signed data portion, since I'm already creating signatures on external detached data. What I was wondering is if it was possible to add the timestamp at the same level as the certificates, much as you add additional certificates (for a complete signing chain) to a PKCS#7? Alternately, If there is another PKI data structure that could incorporate both a PKCS#7 and a RFC 3161 timestamp, could you please suggest it to me? Thanks for any and all help. - Bob ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
