Ok, that sort-of make sense, I think....  Still, does there exist a good
guide or example for creating & verifying a certificate using the libcrypto
out of the OpenSSL package?

I think I'm getting tripped up in basics like data formats, etc that an
example or tutorial would probably clear up.....

thanks very much,
dave.
