Hello,

we managed to import RSA private keys successfully (private key blob
format is known), but DSA private key blob is a top secret. We can get
the raw private key data from DSA private key blob, but not put it
there. Is there any format description available that will let us set
DSA private key for certificate in CryptoAPI?

Sincerely yours,
Eugene Mayevski
