I need to write a client class that will talk to a three tier server
running as a service on NT (C++) . The server uses NT's CryptAPI to
encrypt passwords sent by clients and optionally crypt all the data.
What I was wondering is:

1) Will the Java encryption classes work with the public key/session
keys of NT's CryptAPI. I am using PROV_RSA_FULL which uses RSA for key
exchange and RC2, RC4 for session keys.

2) CryptAPI supports the container PROV_SSL (secure socket layer). Could
this be used with Java?

3) Does anyone have hands on experience of encryption/decryption in Java
and if so where I can find detailed information on how to use it. I am
rather new to Java so I dont know its class structure well enough yet.

4) How low-level can you get when working with Java encryption.
Exchanging public key's etc.
