+=head1 NAME
+
+PKCS12_create - create a PKCS#12 structure
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/pkcs12.h>
+
+ PKCS12 *PKCS12_create(char *pass, char *name, EVP_PKEY *pkey, X509 *cert, STACK_OF(X509) *ca,
+                               int nid_key, int nid_cert, int iter, int mac_iter, int keytype);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+PKCS12_create() creates a PKCS#12 structure.
+
+B<pass> is the passphrase to use. B<name> is the B<friendlyName> to use for
+the supplied certifictate and key. B<pkey> is the private key to include in
+the structure and B<cert> its corresponding certificates. B<ca>, if not B<NULL>
+is an optional set of certificates to also include in the structure.
+
+B<nid_key> and B<nid_cert> are the encryption algorithms that should be used
+for the key and certificate respectively. B<iter> is the encryption algorithm
+iteration count to use and B<mac_iter> is the MAC iteration count to use.
+B<keytype> is the type of key.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+The parameters B<nid_key>, B<nid_cert>, B<iter>, B<mac_iter> and B<keytype>
+can all be set to zero and sensible defaults will be used.
+
+These defaults are: 40 bit RC2 encryption for certificates, triple DES
+encryption for private keys, a key iteration count of PKCS12_DEFAULT_ITER
+(currently 2048) and a MAC iteration count of 1.
+
+The default MAC iteration count is 1 in order to retain compatibility with
+old software which did not interpret MAC iteration counts. If such compatibility
+is not required then B<mac_iter> should be set to PKCS12_DEFAULT_ITER.
+
+B<keytype> adds a flag to the store private key. This is a non standard extension
+that is only currently interpreted by MSIE. If set to zero the flag is omitted,
+if set to B<KEY_SIG> the key can be used for signing only, if set to B<KEY_EX>
+it can be used for signing and encryption. This option was useful for old
+export grade software which could use signing only keys of arbitrary size but
+had restrictions on the permissible sizes of keys which could be used for
+encryption.
+
+=head1 NEW FUNCTIONALITY IN OPENSSL 0.9.8
+
+Some additional functionality was added to PKCS12_create() in OpenSSL
+0.9.8. These extensions are detailed below.
+
+If a certificate contains an B<alias> or B<keyid> then this will be
+used for the corresponding B<friendlyName> or B<localKeyID> in the
+PKCS12 structure.
+
+Either B<pkey>, B<cert> or both can be B<NULL> to indicate that no key or
+certficate is required. In previous versions both had to be present or
+a fatal error is returned.
+
+B<nid_key> or B<nid_cert> can be set to -1 indicating that no encryption
+should be used. 
+
+B<mac_iter> can be set to -1 and the MAC will then be omitted entirely.
