RE: Private key decoding

2000-11-27 Thread Dale Peakall 

 I have a private key created by the ssleay cert. cookbook. The
 problem is that this key is encrypted , but , to make
 the OpenLDAP server TLS enabled , I need to have the
 private key in clear text.
 
 Please guide me to any tool which can do the same.

Please read the FAQ. http://www.openssl.org/faq/

You can simply remove the password by using:

   $ openssl rsa -in key.pem -out new-key.pem -passin password

this should remove the password. Take a look to the rsa tool
anyway to check the options...

Thanks  a lot for the replies, but , I guess we are missing out a point
here. I need to have the private key decoded into plain text
and not just remove the password phrase.

I realised this because even after trying out the solutions,
it gives me the error : "could not use the key file:"


If I am wrong , please do correct me.

Thanks
Prashant
