We are using OpenSSL version 0.9.8l And what we find is that the DSA private key formats are different in FIPS and non-FIPS mode
In FIPS mode it starts with -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- Whereas in non-FIPS mode it starts with -----BEGIN DSA PRIVATE KEY----- I understand that this is expected since the "traditional" format relies on MD5 which is prohibited in FIPS mode However for our application to work with the SSH keys we would need it in the traditional format in FIPS mode Is there a way to override this default behavior and still be able to generate the keys in the traditional format. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
