I've gotten myself in a bit of a pickle. Due to administrative problems with my company's NIC records and subsequent delay of several weeks in getting a signed certificate back from Equifax, I've so far been unable to find the correct private key for the certificate. I am trying to use the certificate with IMAP to replace our old POP3 server with an IMAP over TLS/SSL server.
Setup is: RedHat 7.3 Linux 2.4.18-3 OpenSSL 0.9.6g IMAP4rev1 2002.328 ( Washington U IMAP server 2002.RC7 ) I've found what I believe to be the correct key file ( based on date, location ), however it appears to be encrypted with a password. The imap daemon starts fine ( using xinet ) but when I try to connect, I get timeout waiting for the server to respond to the Client Hello. After killing the imap server I get the following in my maillogs: Nov 26 13:43:38 prospero imapd[16265]: Unable to load private key from /usr/local/ssl/certs/imapd.pem, host=UNKNOWN Nov 26 13:43:38 prospero imapd[16265]: SSL error status: error:0906406D:PEM routines:DEF_CALLBACK:problems getting password Nov 26 13:43:38 prospero imapd[16265]: SSL error status: error:0906A068:PEM routines:PEM_do_header:bad password read Nov 26 13:43:38 prospero imapd[16265]: SSL error status: error:140B3009:SSL routines:SSL_CTX_use_RSAPrivateKey_file:missing asn1 e os Is there a simple way to remove the password from my key file? Is that even my problem? I'm fairly new to OpenSSL so help of any kind is appreciated.
