Thanks for answering my curious questions so far. =)
Since I messed up formatting earlier, my first question about generating keys with this particular exponent was hidden:
Do you know how to generate such a key pair using gpg (or another tool)? Or is this done automatically?
- cperciva 16y agoIn OpenSSL you can pass your public exponent to RSA_generate_key. I'm not sure about gpg... it has been a while since I last generated a key.
- gduffy 16y agoFor OpenSSL command line: openssl genrsa -f4 2048
- johkra 16y agoThanks, OpenSSL actually uses 0x10001 by default for e. I'll use it instead of GPG from now on to generate keys.
