I have a cert someCA.cer (the root cert) and another, the end-user
cert myenduser.cer in which the issuer is the CA who did
somethingca.cer.

I have both these certs, that's all. when i look at the cert with the
microsoft viewing tool, i see a thumbprint, and a public key and sha1
algorithm type respectively on each of these 2 certs.

I want to write or use a function that will cryptologically establish
that myenduser.cer was indeed signed by someCA.cer and how do i do
this - info is appreciated.

right now i dont see any win32 api;s to help me here. is there any
relevant source in openssl or whatever -  i dont want to insert the ca
or anyone else into a trusted store or anything like that just want to
plug these 2 certs into an algorithm and come up with the answer.
