You hire more people, and avoid re-boots. Security has a definite, measurable, cost. If you _don't_ use a passphrase, anyone who breaks into your server can then impersonate it. Do the risk/reward/cost analysis, and see if it makes sense for you or not. Of course, you could also use a hardware key store, and unlock that instead. And perhaps charge more for the increased security. -- Carson Gaspar -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~carson/home.html Queen Trapped in a Butch Body ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
