RFC 6234 contains, embedded in it, code to implement various functions, including SHA-2. Extracting that code from the RFC is not a clean process. In addition the code must have existed unembedded before being embedded. Is that code available from the IETF or elsewhere? (I have tried some approaches to finding such code before posting here, but none successful.) -- Christopher Dearlove Senior Principal Engineer, Communications Group Communications, Networks and Image Analysis Capability BAE Systems Advanced Technology Centre West Hanningfield Road, Great Baddow, Chelmsford, CM2 8HN, UK Tel: +44 1245 242194 | Fax: +44 1245 242124 chris.dearlove@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx | http://www.baesystems.com BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Registered Office: Warwick House, PO Box 87, Farnborough Aerospace Centre, Farnborough, Hants, GU14 6YU, UK Registered in England & Wales No: 1996687 ******************************************************************** This email and any attachments are confidential to the intended recipient and may also be privileged.
