E is 17 in pgp, but often 3 or 65567 elsewhere. I know why 2**N+1, but is there anything that should be said about this in the spec? (Testing 2.6.2 v.s. SSLeay from long ago proved that any value of E worked in either; But only some could be generated, or would be by default). --- reply to tzeruch - at - ceddec - dot - com ---
