Yea, that was my thinking as well. I found that I could unpack these files
into a human-readable form with the command:
[me@mybox ~]$ db1_dump185 -f ~jan/unscrambled.key key3.db
(It worked on the cert7.db and the secmodule.db as well.)
But, openssl uses a key in the PEM format. Hrm. Maybe I can do some sort of
conversion from the DB output to the PEM key... if anyone has done this,
pointers would be highly appreciated.
Thanks for the tips, tho Henry...
