unknown iplanet db password

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. :smiley:

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. :frowning:

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.
