Hi! I've just downloaded "openssl 0.9.7b" and successfully patched it with "hw_pkcs11-0.9.7b.patch.gz" and compule it under Windows XP using "Visual C++ 6.0". I want to use this "pkcs11 engine" to access SmartCards using its pkcs11 library.
The I successfully created an RSA key pair using: >openssl genrsa -out priv.key -engine pkcs11 1024 engine "pkcs11" set. Loading 'screen' into random state - done Generating RSA private key, 1024 bit long modulus e is 65537 (0x10001) output file: priv.key -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- MIGMAgEAAoGBAKEwYwCUHTeQnwa1vcWzBuybikf2I2NOiaUZT6dKB9zYayN1b4Mo /d1qLm8Hqpoy99srq2ABKQAY+IvLRuDa+OGyzl9xG2ra5qSvMUgUgjPdw1hL/U8v pTybLTSMvMxsYYv/8XMM7IGFNScckm/CouuXAeTtqMh9dZanTNNByBNVAgMBAAE= -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY----- Now the problem is that I could not sign anything using this engine. I tried: >openssl rsautl -in c:\1.txt -inkey priv.key -sign -hexdump -engine pkcs11 engine "pkcs11" set. Loading 'screen' into random state - done unable to load Private Key Note: Same commands used without "engine pkcs11" line work ok. My question is how to use the generated private RSA key to sign anything using openssl ?
