Hi Tim,
after understanding what happens I found and understand FAQ. But if it is
part of the FAQ why not putting a hint on the relevant man pages, Maybe
after doing this this item is no FAQ any more ;).
Ciao

Hi,
ok, sorry for not understanding what happens. The call
OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() was missing.
After adding it everything seems to work perfect.
Shouldn't this be mentioned on the man page of the PEM functions ?

Hi,
I generated a x509 certificate. When I try to read the private key with
PEM_read_PrivateKey I always get NULL as return value and when calling
perror I get an Illegal seek.
Here is my code:
FILE *pemKeyFile;
EVP_PKEY *privKey;
pemKeyFile = fopen ("/home/user/testkey.
