Russ, The problem is that the current CMSKEA draft includes two different usages of id-keyExchangeAlgorithm each associated with different parameter definitions. As Jim pointed out, this is not a good situation since an OID should always be associated with a single parameter definition. The proposed solution (which Jim has agreed to) will define a unique OID (i.e. id-kEAKeyEncryptionAlgorithm) to be used in the KeyAgreementRecipientInfo keyEncryptionAlgorithm field. The parameters definition for the new OID will be KeyWrapAlgorithm (using id-fortezzaWrap80 OID). - john At 04:37 PM 5/7/99 -0400, Russ Housley wrote: >John: > >In my opinion, only one parameter structure should ever be associated with >an OID.
