You might have to call the openssl dll directly to do this see the indy
interface unit for the necessary calls have been translated.  All the
necessary code is cotained in the source for openssl.exe (the command
line utility) but may take a bit of work to define your own "delphi"
layer around.

Why do you need this?

To encrypt something?
There are functions in OpenSSL to do this. Some declaration must be added to
Indy and you can generate the keys.
