[Perl-openssl-users] Public keys cannot decrypt messages.

[Emmanuel S. <es...@li...>]

I'm using Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA to decrypt what I'm told is data encrypted
with the private key of an RSA pair. However creating an
Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA object with the public key and using the encrypt
function wields :

Public keys cannot decrypt messages. at ./request.pl line 54.

Can anybody explain this to me ?
