Sounds like perhaps you fat-fingers it as entering it, or are not using
caps or special chars you did when you entered it. I'ts case sensitivve,
so caps count, spcial chars count. did you start the passphrase, typo
then backspace? if so, try that excat sequence and see if it works for
ya. Barring that your quickest fix is to redo the certs...
Thanks,
