[pycrypto] Pycrypto question.

[jd]

Hi everyone, 
   
   I am trying to implement a simple pub/private key scheme. Want to encrypt bunch of things and decrypt it using public key (which will be distributed). Pycrypto seems to be perfect. Here is the sample code.. butit fails when I try to decrypt using public key part. Any pointers/suggestions appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

x=RSAkey.encrypt("FooBar",0)
print "Encrypted bytes" ,x
print "Decrypted again", RSAkey.decrypt(x)

# Got the public key part
pub = RSAkey.publickey()
pub.decrypt(x)
