Subject: decrypting the private key
Hello,
I generated a private key with:
openssl genrsa -des3 1024 > c:\mykey.key
It will ask me for a password. I enter "password" (high security eh ? :)
How do I get the unecrypted private key back ?
I tried:
openssl enc -d -in c:\mykey.key -out c:\unencr.key -des3
and enter the "password" when it asks for it and I get a
"bad decrypt" message...
Any idea's ?
thanks,
tom
