hi! i have an application where users download some XML files from a server. Users also download RSA signatures for those files. The users then load the file and corresponding signature into a component of the application and it performs a RSA verify operation. what i'd like to know is how to get the server's public key (to perform the verify) to the user? one solution that presents itself is to have a CA signed server certificate which contains its public key. but then the question is how does the user get the server certificate. thanks cheers ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
