RSA support in Ruby?

[Randy Lawrence]

Hi,

We're using Ruby 1.8.1 and would like to use RSA to encrypt data using a
public key from our mod_ruby scripts.

But it seems that openssl.rb included with Ruby does not support RSA yet.

We need this feature in our production environment by next week

What are my options (other than using Perl)?

Are you sure ?
the ruby-doc.org RDoc pages shows that a class cRSA exist, isn't that
what you need ?

Thanks! I checked it out after seeing your response.

Unfortunately, the example code snippet doesn't work for cRSA and
there's virtually no documentation. I'm new at Ruby so maybe I'm doing
something wrong.

If you know of a working example, please let me know.

Thanks again.
