Re-trying.. From: Microsoft Office User <kha...@cisco.com<mailto:kha...@cisco.com>> Date: Mon, 13 May 2013 23:34:56 -0700 To: <openssl-users@openssl.org<mailto:openssl-users@openssl.org>> Subject: Question regarding openssl program to compute the hashes and finger-prints.
Hello All , I have a question regarding c_rehash utility used to create symbolic links to files named by the hash values. I understand that c_rehash calls openssl to compute the hash by invoking the following command : $OPENSSL x509 -hash -fingerprint -noout -in $file What I noticed, recent openssl versions(1.0) are producing hash that is different from the earlier openssl versions (0.9.8u). Has the hash algorithm that the above command uses has changed ? (for e.g : from md5 to sha1??). Is it possible to specify the hash algorithm explictly in the above command so that I can have both versions of openssl create the same .0 file ? Any pointers are greatly appreciated as this is affecting back compatibility of my application. Thank you. Khadija
