Ah this does work. I should have check the newsgroups a bit more.
I wish the perldoc for Crypt::DSA had mentioned that there is a write function.
The
Crypt::DSA doc says
$signature = $dsa->sign(%arg)
Signs a message (or the digest of a message) using the private portion of the DSA key and returns the signature.
The signature is a hash reference with two keys: s and r.
- %arg can include:
-
Digest
A digest to be signed. The digest should be 20 bytes in length or less.
You must provide either this argument or Message (see below).
- Key
The Crypt::DSA::Key object with which the signature will be generated. Should contain a private key attribute (priv_key).
This argument is required.
write (what zentara used), is a method of $key, a
Crypt::DSA::Key object, so it makes sense that its documented in
Crypt::DSA::Key.
