I would suggest simply using a passwordless certificate. If you insist on using a passphrase, you should try apache's SSLPassPhraseDialog configuration directive. This way you can eider feed the passphrase to apache statically via a simple shell script which echo's the password string, or you use systemd's password agent interface [2] to query for the password via the systemd-ask-password command line tool. Imho this is simply a configuration issue and not a bug in systemd, so I'm inclined to close the bug report or maybe re-assign to the apache package, so it can be added to its README.Debian (or a similar file) [1] http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslpassphrasedialog [2] http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PasswordAgents/ -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
