Sorry, that should be PEM and DER formats, not X.509.

Subject: X.509 formatted RSA keys

Hi all,

I have a request to add GnuTLS support to an application that currently uses OpenSSL, but only for SHA1/SHA256 hash generation and RSA signing/verifying of hashes.  I think GnuTLS is overkill and probably libgcrypt is all I need.

Is there a mechanism for supporting X.509 key format to the format libgcrypt uses?  Would that be libksbe?  The application is already predicated on downloading those for the verify step, so I need to accommodate that format.

Thanks,
-MSK
