I'm encrypting and then decrypting a byte array using the
RSACryptoServiceProvider. The byte array is 52 bytes in length. After
encrypting I'm converting the encrypted bytes (returned from the
provider's Encrypt method) to a string using Encoding.UTF8.GetString.
I then pass this string along to the decryption function. That
function first converts the string back to a byte array using
Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes. It then calls the RSACryptoServiceProvider's
Decrypt method. I get an exception trying to make this call because
the byte array returned from Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes is too long. A max
of 128 bytes can be passed to the RSA decryption algorithm.

I've tried other encodings but can't get this to work. What am I doing
wrong? Here's some code:

client (encrypts):

       byte[] cipherBytes = rsa.Encrypt( bytesToEncrypt, false);

       string cipherText = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(cipherBytes);

server (decrypts):

       byte[] encryptedBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(cipherText);

       byte[] clearTextBytes = provider.Decrypt(encryptedBytes,
false); <<--- GET EXCEPTION HERE

Thanks,
Bob
