Hello, I'm trying to generate a private key for use with a thawte 
certificate (I just want to generate they keys, the actual certificate will 
be installed on another server to which I don't have telnet access)

The random files I used are located here:
/usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/fileskey

I keep getting this error after I enter the pass phrase:

OpenSSL> genrsa -des3 -rand file1.txt:file2.txt:file3.txt -out
www.vitadvice.com
key 512260215 semi-random bytes loaded
Generating RSA private key, 512 bit long modulus
.....................++++++++++++
.......++++++++++++
e is 65537 (0x10001)
Enter PEM pass phrase:
Verifying password - Enter PEM pass phrase:
Verify failure
10575:error:0906406D:PEM routines:DEF_CALLBACK:problems getting

..c:114:
10575:error:0906906F:PEM routines:PEM_ASN1_write_bio:read
key:pem_lib.c:366:
error in genrsa

---------------

I did everything as it says in the instructions.
But I must be doing something wrong...help is appreciated!
