Hi, I have been trying to generate the value of the subject key identifier but am getting conflicting results:
RFC5280 section 4.2.1.2 <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5280#section-4.2.1.2>states that the subject key id is the sha1 hash of the public key. But when I do the following I get different results: 1. openssl rsa -pubout -in my.key.pem | openssl sha1 -c Result: b0:83:be:ad:72:af:fd:25:ef:4b:dc:b2:b0:26:9c:54:24:de:13:c2 2. openssl x509 -inform der -in my.cer -text Result: C5:C1:98:9F:22:2E:13:25:31:E7:15:7C:2F:E2:C9:9D:45:94:56:D7 Why this discrepancy? am I doing something wrong? Note: The cert is an end entity certificate Regards, Tushar
