Hi, I generated a private key in PEM format and want to convert it to DER format with the following command:
openssl rsa -in mykey.pem -outform DER -out mykey.der It works OK, but the resulting mykey.der is unencrypted... I can verify this by issuing openssl rsa -in mykey.der -inform DER -text -noout and getting the output without it asking me for a passphrase. Now I tried all of the following without getting the mykey.der encrypted: openssl rsa -in mykey.pem -passout file:mykey.pass outform DER -out mykey.der openssl rsa -in mykey.pem -passout pass:this_is_my_passphrase -outform DER -out mykey.der openssl rsa -in mykey.pem -des3 -passout pass:this_is_my_passphrase -outform DER -out mykey.der But the result is always the same... mykey.der is completely open... is there a way to encrypt with a passphrase a DER format private key?
