Ok I have been doing some experiments with OpenVPN and I can connect using 1 bit DH parameters.  Any bigger than that up to at least 13824 I get the following 'modulus too large' error on the client log: TLS_ERROR: BIO read tls_read_plaintext error: error:05066067:Diffie-Hellman routines:CO

I am trying to generate a 16384 bit DH file for testing purposes. Is it necessary to have a '.rnd' in existence before trying to generate this file? I generated one which took 4 days to do but the computer had a .rnd file. I am currently trying to generate another on a system WITHOUT the .rn

[openssl-users] Need help encrypting my ca.key

2015-01-05 Thread jack seth
I must be doing something wrong but I can't figure out what it is. I am trying to encrypt my private ca key with this command openssl rsa -in ca.key -out caencrypted.key -aes256 This works fine but the problem is I don't get the original key back when I decrypt it using this command openss
