[solved] Tls Encryption, Enter PEM pass phrase?????

[mbarka]

hello
I asked :

i have a certificate given by a CA (not generated by me)
the certificate is composed by a *.crt, *.pem, and an activation pass phrase
under /var/MailRoot , i put *.crt as server.cert, *.pem as server.key.
i enabled CTRL-TLS, SMTP-TLS, POP3-TLS.
msgs are crypted, but xmail keep asking me the PEM pass phrase in each pop or smtp req.
can you help me?

Try this:

openssl rsa -in server.cert -out server.cert.insecure
mv server.cert server.cert.secure
mv server.cert.insecure server.cert

Keep both files.

pb : i tried
openssl rsa -in server.cert -out server.cert.insecure
the result is
unable to load Private Key
6723:error:0906D06C:PEM routines:PEM_read_bio:no start line:pem_lib.c:644:Expecting: ANY PRIVATE KEY
i didn't understand the error msg
could you help me

The private key's path seems to be wrong, check the path settings in etc/openssl.conf

To remove the pass phrase on an RSA private key:
openssl rsa -in key.pem -out keyout.pem
in that way it will not ask me the pass phrase.
