rampart encrypt with x509 no data encipherment


Hello All,

I am using axis2 1.4 and rampart and found that encryption (WSS 1.0) is not possible if the certificate has no data encipherment, i.e using the transport security cert.

Am i understanding correctly that this is implementation specific? I read somewhere that other tooling allows  transport security certs without the key usage data encipherment to encrypt a message by creating a symetric key based on this transport security cert.

Any info ragarding this is welcome.

Kind regards,
Erwin
