Is the password under Windows truncated to 31 characters?
Windows allows up to 32 character passwords. It seems when openssl
exports a 32 character password pkcs12 file, Windows does not
recognize the results, which is unfortunate in my case because I
specifically need a 32 character password (GUID). openssl pkcs12
passwords work correctly <32 characters. Perhaps I can post a 32
character password pkcs12 from openssl and the equivalent (same keys /
export passwords) from Windows? Would that be helpful?
Also you could try importing the PKCS#12 file into Mozilla (or anything using
NSS like Firebird, Firefox) to see if that accepts it.
I'll take a look.
