Given the r & s part of the DSA signature, I generate a DSA_signature out of it, and need to pass it to openssl dgst -dss1 -signature ....
This gives me the following error: Error Verifying Data 50524:error:0D0680A8:asn1 encoding routines:ASN1_CHECK_TLEN:wrong tag:/usr/src/secure/lib/libcrypto/../../../crypto/openssl/crypto/asn1/tasn_dec.c:946: 50524:error:0D07803A:asn1 encoding routines:ASN1_ITEM_EX_D2I:nested asn1 error:/usr/src/secure/lib/libcrypto/../../../crypto/openssl/crypto/asn1/tasn_dec.c:304:Type=DSA_SIG Does i2d_DSA_SIG return signature in some encoded form?
