Hi,

I am experimenting with the minumum RSA key lenght allowed
by TLS 1.0. What I gather from reading the specification is 
that it is left to applications to enforce minimum/maximum
lenghts - please correct me if this is not the case.

Assuming that TLS 1.0 spec does not place any restriction on
the RSA key size in a server certificate, does OpenSSL have
any such restriction. e.g. will it allow creation of a server
certificate with only 128 bit RSA key? I know it is very 
insecure, but I want to ignore that part for now.

Also what about the browsers? will IE or Netscape accept
such a certificate during TLS handshake?

thanks,
