Re: Private key decoding
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.

You can simply remove the password by using: $ openssl rsa -in key.pem -out new-key.pem -passin this should remove the password. Take a look to the rsa tool anyway to check the options...
