The solution sugested by connstance does not resolve the problem. In my case I am trying to access my customer VPN and I cannot password protect the certificate. In pfSense this is a global option, and if they change this they need to change all users vpn.

That's wonderful. There's one problem though: When specifying a *.p12 file, one HAS to enter a "Private key password" even if the PKCS#12 is not password protected at all. When specifying sep. files for CA, cert and key, entering the "Private key password" is optional. Not when using the PKCS#12 file.
