| Petr Pastor 09/09/2006 4:25pm | Hi,
I've just read an information about GNU PG it seems to be quite standalone encryption system and seems to not having possibility to use X.509 certificates issued by certification authorities. Correct me anyone if I am wrong. I wold like to ask if there going to be some plugin for the Scribe enabling digital signing emails using PKI infrastructure with X.509 certificates issued by cert. authorities. I consider it maybye more valuable than continuing with gpg. thanks -pp- |

I suspect that openssl might be able to do it. But last time I tried to look at calling openssl it was way over my head. |

I'm searching now for suitable interface for X.509/PKI infrastructure so far I have found one interersting page http://www.eskimo.com/%7Eweidai/cryptlib.html with Crypto++ library which may help to you as a programmer with this problematic. Wish the best -pp- |
