problem with 1024 rsa private key and netscape



I am using:
        apache 1.3.0+ssl_1.18
        SSLeay 0.9.0b
        (european?) netscape 4.05

I chose Apache+SSLeay because i would like to make some tests with
128-bit encryption, but i have some
problems with my netscape here in austria (maybe because it is an export
version).
When i view the certificate in the browser, it tells me, that the
certificate is using an only 512-bit RSA public key. Can this be
correct? When i generated the certificate it said: "Generating a 1024
bit RSA key...".

And what is the meaning of the define SSL_EXP in the file ssl_locl.h
from SSLeay??? Is there any use in setting it to SSL_NOT_EXP?

After all it is not possible for me to establish a 128-bit encryption
and i am thankfull for any hints.
