SYNOPSIS use HMAC::SHA1; hex($string, $key) returns a 20 byte digest in binary form. hexhash($string, $key) returns a 20 byte digest as printable hex. DESCRIPTION This module computes an HMAC SHA-1 digest as specified by RFC 2104. EXAMPLE use HMAC::SHA1; print HMAC::SHA1::hexhash("what do ya want for nothing?", "Jefe"), " should be effcdf6ae5eb2fa2d27416d5f184df9c259a7c79\n"; SEE ALSO RFC 2104 - HMAC specification. RFC 2202 - HMAC test cases. FIPS PUB 180-1 - SHA-1 specification. -- For a good time, read RFC 2324. http://postmaster.net/~clintdw/
