Hi,

Is it possible to encrypt using the RSA private key and decrypt using the
public key?  I am able to do the opposite but when I try to decrypt using
the private key I get a "Bad Key" Exception.  Here is an example:

                   rsa = new RSACryptoServiceProvider();
                   RSAParameters publicKey = rsa.ExportParameters(false);
                   RSAParameters privateKey = rsa.ExportParameters(true);
                   byte[] testPlainData = new byte[] { 0x01, 0x02, 0x03 };
                   rsa.ImportParameters(publicKey);
                   byte[] enc = rsa.Encrypt(testPlainData, false);
                   rsa.ImportParameters(privateKey);
                   byte[] plain = rsa.Decrypt(enc, false);

                   enc = rsa.Encrypt(testPlainData, false);
                   rsa.ImportParameters(publicKey);
                   rsa.Decrypt(enc, false);

The first encryption and decryption work fine.  The second encryption
(using the private key) seems to work but the decryption using the public
key throws the exception.

Thanks,

Jeronimo
