Subject: programming examples for X.509 signing
Date: Thu, 07 Apr 2011 00:33:46 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <inipob$6fp$1@dough.gmane.org> (raw)
Hi,
I don't know if this is the best forum for this, but I'll ask anyway.
I would need to write two application that kind of work together:
- one application that signs a small piece of text with an X.509
certificate and then sends it over a UDP packet
- and a second one (receiving that package) that verifies that signature
based on the signature (actually, the name of the CA that signed that
signature).
My goal is to extend a application that sends UDP-stream by additing
X.509 based authentification.
I guess the openssl project would be a place for this, but it's not that
easy to find good documentation on how to use this inside a self-written
C-program. (or I must have been looking at the wrong place -( ).
Anybody any idea where to find this information and -preferably- some
programming examples?
Cheerio! Kr. Bonne.
