12.0pt'>I haven't been looking too closely at the official crypto source, so I
can't say for sure. But from the sound of it, maybe it's the message encoding
scheme for the RSA signature. There are two main encoding schemes: PKCS#1 and
OAEP, though PKCS#1 now includes OAEP as an option. There's also ISO9697, but
I've never seen it used in conjunction with X.509. If this is the encoding
scheme, then it can be found in the ALGO oid in the SubjectPublicKeyInfo
portion of the cert.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
