I'm trying to renew a ssl certificate on my SunFire 280R that is running iplanet on top of Solaris 8. The password that I was given for the Key Pair File Password doesn't work and the previous admin has no idea what it could possibly be. :o
Does anyone have any idea how to crowbar the password file? (does anyone know where it is or if it's possible?)
Thanks in advance.
As far as I know, there is no way of finding out the password.
Why not revoke your current certificate, create a new key pass and request a new certificate?
The sad this is that I have to have the password before I can request another certificate. There is a field on the request form that needs to have the password entered.
Contact them by phone or email and explain what happened. You are not the first one to contact them about a lost password, this happens all the time. And they want to sell you another certificate. They will work with you.
