It's a TLS vector DER-encoded certs. I.e. 24-bit length field = Y 24-bit length field = X \ cert 1 encoded cert (length X) / 24-bit length field = W \ cert 2 encoded cert (length W) / -Ekr _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
