RE: Nested ASN1 strings and OPENSSL_ALLOW_NESTED_ASN1_STRINGS

Hi, Thanks a lot for the prompt and clear response - much appreciated. It turned out that the apparent nested string was caused by a mismatch between the ASN.1 definition in the parser and the actual ASN.1 structure being parsed. Thanks again, Bryn -Original Message- From: Dr. Steph

Re: Proper way to use BIO_f_cipher with socket BIOs

Hi, well there is a specific reason I am not using SSL :-). Anyway, I have already solved the problem without using the BIOs. Best regards, Jernej Kos. On Friday 29 of June 2007, David Schwartz wrote: > > i am trying to use the BIO_f_cipher to encrypt/decrypt data > > coming/going over > > a so

If you use any of d2i_* then source buffer should be in DER format. This means "der" to "internal" format conversion. If you use any of i2d_*

Steve, Thanks so much for the guidance. I was going to build openssl and use the command openssl -in client.pem -text and debug my way to that knowledge! Chuck Wegrzyn Dr. Stephen Henson wrote: > On Fri, Jun 29, 2007, Chaz. wrote: > >> Thanks for the information. How do I go about getting the

Thanks for the information. How do I go about getting the field programmatically? I saw how to get the data in...I just don't see how to get it out. Chaz. Dr. Stephen Henson wrote: > On Fri, Jun 29, 2007, Chaz. wrote: > >> I need to store an alternate string that will identify the subject. I >>

Proper way to use BIO_f_cipher with socket BIOs

Hi, i am trying to use the BIO_f_cipher to encrypt/decrypt data coming/going over a socket BIO. Everything works fine, just the last message that is sent blocks the receiving side until a socket timeout ocurrs - at that time the last block is properly decrypted. Is there something that should b

Question about subjectAltName

I need to store an alternate string that will identify the subject. I had originally thought I would be able to use 'othername' as the way to store it. When I ask for the extension back what I get is the string: othername: Which really isn't useful (I would like to get back my original string).
