The server has supplied you with the certificate to its CA, which includes the CA's public key. You're putting it in the option for client authentication via certificate.
I believe the option is -cacert, but I'm not quite certain. (I don't use s_client enough to know for sure.) -Kyle H On 6/12/06, Jeremiah Foster <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hello list! I am trying to connect to a server that has supplied me with a cert. The cert in question is called debitech_CA.pem and when I supply the following command; $ openssl s_client -connect secure.incab.se:443/verify/server/click -cert debitech/debitech_CA.pem I get the following error; unable to load client certificate private key file 31977:error:0906D06C:PEM routines:PEM_read_bio:no start line:pem_lib.c:644:Expecting: ANY PRIVATE KEY I do not understand what ANY PRIVATE KEY means, does it mean it was expecting a key but did not get a key? So the key is somehow wrong and/or bad? thank you muchly, jeremiah ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
