have a simple java chat client that I would like to secure using RSA.

I have knowledge of how RSA works, but I am having trouble implementing it from JAVA.

If I need to obtain the Public Key from the server that my client connects to, do I need to have the ChatServer.java script obtain the Public Key from the server and then have my chatClient.java script grab that Public Key?

Please help, I need some direction.
