creating a self signed certificate

I am trying to create a self signed certificate for my server. I have already made and installed everything necessary (using Apache 1.3.12, open_ssl-0.9.4, and mod_ssl 2.6) to get my server running, then I created a certificate by going into the apache dir, and typed make certificate. When I ma

Re: BF_cbc_encrypt()

I am no expert in cryptography, but what you pointed out must be the initial vector. Because you are using Blowfish in CBC mode you need a block of data before you can start the encryption. That block of data is called initial vector as far as I know(hence ivec). Paul Khavkine wrote: I'm fooling

signing data

I am trying to sign data using DSA. My code fails on EVP_SignFinal(). It fails on line 92 in p_sign.c . I think there is something wrong with the way I created EVP_MD_CTX structure for EVP_SignInit(). Any help is appreciated. Here is my code #include #include #include #include int main(int

RE: Decrypting a key

Yes. Ask the person that owns the key :) Otherwise, you're going to need to figure out how to exploit whatever encryption was used on the key. I don't think there's any realistic way to get this information (and there probably shouldn't be). --Tom At 08:31 AM 5/2/2000 -0400, you wrot

Problems Installing Certificates

I'm running Open SSL and Apache on Solaris 7. I had created a request file (using OpenSSL) and sent it to Verisign. Now, I have received the signed certificate back from Verisign, and I get the following errors when I try to install it. unable to load CA private key 7645:error:06065064:digital

Storng encryption?

Hi! I am new to the SSL world and is very interested about the subject.   I have downloaded Apache/mod-ssl/open-ssl and started my first SSL enabled web page. However, when I view the SSL certificate on my Browser, it says "40bits" key length.   From what I read, the Strong Encryption suppose
