It's encrypted. The following command creates a non-encrypted key: openssl req -new -nodes -keyout mykey.pem -out myreq.pem 265 You can also create an unencrypted copy of the key, like this: openssl rsa -in mykey.pem -out mykey-unencrypted.pem Cheers, Richard ----- Please consider sponsoring my work on free software.
