Hi ,

Thankyou all and thankyou Stephen for giving me some hope for my idea :)
But truly speaking I didn't get your steps. I don't know anything about
Digital Certificates , but I have started working on this.

I am referring books like openssl cookbook and network security with
openssl  by Pravin,Matt and John which is out of date.We have any other
stuff to refer ?

Stephen I have one idea, instead going for complicated rsa like algorithm
of mine if I write a simple algorithm  which inverts bits only i.e NOT
cipher.
Can you  give me detail steps
( i.e how many c program files I'll need  and where I need to copy them to
use it  with Digital Certificates)
for how  can I use  this simple   NOT cipher  with Digital Certificates
instead  of  using rsa.

Please  Stephen help for this if possible.

Regards,
Niraj.

Yup.    Getting an OID arc is pretty easy:
