Doesn't seem to work. Can you try giving it a password? I've known some
software use some "magic word" when you use a blank (MSIE 5 with PKCS#12
is one example).
Does it give any info about the encryption used? The OID suggests a
PKCS#12 RC4 PBE algorithm but they might use something else, I can do a
few experiments to see if its a PKCS#5 based PBE algorithm.
