Linux Version of CryptoSys PKI

This is a beta release of a Linux Version of CryptoSys PKI. The Toolkit is provided as a static library diCrPKI.a which can be compiled with your own source code on 32-bit Intel x86 systems, and a shared library libcryptosyspki.so.3.2. There are similar Linux versions of its sister products CryptoSys API and CryptoSys KX.

We've compiled this on a Fedora Core 1 system and tested it on other Intel-based Red Hat Linux systems (and Ubuntu with gcc 4.0.3) without a problem.

We offer this Linux version free of charge and free of any responsibilities for performance or support. Please read the Copyright and terms below before using. If it works for you, please use it and let us know. Likewise, if it doesn't work on your particular i386 brand of Linux, please tell us. We can't fix what we don't know about.

Please note that this Linux version is not compiled for use in a multi-threaded environment.

Download

The download includes the static library, shared library, two test programs and a random number seed generator. Linux version last updated 5 March 2008 for version 3.2 of CryptoSys PKI. For more details, please see the readme file in the download.
