'  Get the private key in XML format:

'  This example will sign a string, and receive the signature
'  in a hex-encoded string.  Therefore, set the encoding mode
'  to "hex":
rsa.EncodingMode = "hex"

'  If some other non-Chilkat software is going to verify
'  the signature, it is important to match the byte-ordering.
'  The LittleEndian property may be set to 1
'  for little-endian byte ordering,
'  or 0  for big-endian byte ordering.
'  Microsoft apps typically use little-endian, while
'  OpenSSL and other services (such as Amazon CloudFront)
'  use big-endian.
rsa.LittleEndian = 0

strData = "This is the string to be signed."

'  Sign the string using the sha-1 hash algorithm.
'  Other valid choices are "md2", "md5", "sha256",
'  "sha384", and "sha512".
hexSig = rsa.SignStringENC(strData,"sha-1")

Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( hexSig) & "</pre>"

Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( "Success!") & "</pre>"
