Dr Stephen N. Henson. Email, S/MIME and
could I use the ASN.1 library
in
OpenSSL to encode/decode Kerberos traffic, or SNMP traffic (BER),
or other
protocols encoded in BER/DER?
Just curious how "reusable" the OpenSSL ASN.1 was, and if it's not
"quite"
as reusable as I am thinking about, is there a

ates. For instance, can these routines be used to encode/
decode a CMS container. Since CMS is pretty close to PKCS#7, my
assumption would be "yes". But taken to another extreme, could I use
the ASN.1 library in OpenSSL to encode/decode Kerberos traffic, or
SNMP traffic (BER)
