    Subject: Problem with certs for RSA keyentry using keytool

    Message-Id: <E11BgGi-00023B-00@mongoose.slip.net>

Hi,

We're having problems importing certs for an RSA keyentry within
our keystore. The crypto provider is jsafe (crypto-J) from RSA.

The base case that fails is as follows:
We export the self-signed certificate (keytool -selfcert) that is
associated with the key into a file and try to import it back (keytool
-import) from that file without changes.
It fails with an error message to the effect of: the public key in the
keystore and the response do not match.

We also see the exact same behavior with Verisign issued certs.

We are using the following java 2 version:
% java -version
java version "1.2"
Solaris VM (build Solaris_JDK_1.2_01, native threads, sunwjit)

and the jsafe version is 2.1.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

-- Sat
