Presumably you're talking about an Apache server using SSL where the SSL
key
requires a password?  Requiring a human to enter the password is more
secure,
but if you want the system to reboot without manual intervention, you'll
have
to remove the password or put it into a script...

yes, i'm talking about apache with ssl/tls encryption, is that passphrase
going to be a security issue in the internet or locally at the machine
level? if it's machine level, i have no problem getting rid of it coz nobody
here knows anything about unix/bsd.
