Imported them to them proper directories and changed the default settings from the old cert & key files to the new files ("smtpd_tls_cert_file=/etc/ssl/certs/tlscert.pem" and "smtpd_tls_key_file=/etc/ssl/private/tlsprivatekey.key"). When I ran a test e-mail to see if it worked, I got the following errors in "mail.log" Dec 6 21:15:36 portus postfix/smtpd[18839]: warning: cannot get RSA private key from file "/etc/ssl/private/tlsprivate.key": disabling TLS support Dec 6 21:15:36 portus postfix/smtpd[18839]: warning: TLS library problem: error:0906406D:PEM routines:PEM_def_callback:problems getting password:pem_lib.c:110: Dec 6 21:15:36 portus postfix/smtpd[18839]: warning: TLS library problem: error:0906A068:PEM routines:PEM_do_header:bad password read:pem_lib.c:457: Dec 6 21:15:36 portus postfix/smtpd[18839]: warning: TLS library problem: error:140B0009:SSL routines:SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file:PEM lib:ssl_rsa.c:649: Any thought on what I am doing wrong and how I might fix? I am thinking possibly file permissions but did not want to chmod until I knew for sure. Thanks in advance! Ed Ray
