Hello all,
In my application I have a packet of information for which I generate a
signature ("SHA1withDSA"). The raw byte data for the signature is
generated from the information using a MessageDigest ("SHA") and a
public/private key pair has been generated previously.
My question is this: at some point I want to verify the signature using
the public key. When I execute the verification on the same host as
where the information was signed, it verifies correctly. However when I
transport my object to a different host using RMI and then try to verify
the signature, it returns false! I have checked that the information on
which the raw byte data is generated by the MessageDigest did not
change.
Does anyone have a clarification for this phenomenon?
regards,
