Greetings, I have followed the following instructions for converting an IIS
export key into a format readable by open ssl:

my version is
 openSSL 0.9.6 24 Sep 2000

Export a backup file of the Certificate from the Key-Manager.

Find this string in the binary file : "private-key"

Trace back until you find this Hex value: "30 82"

Write from that position to a new file (tmp.bin).

With OpenSSL: openssl rsa -inform NET -in tmp.bin -out key.pem

Type in your password.
after entering the password I get the following error:


unable to load key
16922:error:0D08C007:asn1 encoding routines:D2I_NETSCAPE_PKEY:expecting an
asn1 sequence:n_pkey.c:351:address=135512784 offset=0

any ideas?
