Importing encrypted SSL certificates into ZXTM

If ZXTM throws up this error:

ERROR: Failed to import Certificate (Private key must not be encrypted)

Then you can use openssl to decrypt your private key, enabling ZXTM to parse it.

openssl rsa -in /path/to/private.key -outform PEM -out /plain/format.key

Sometimes keys are held in keystores, encrypted files that contain both public and private keys. This happens in Tomcat and other java servers and we need a way to extract these keys so we can load the certificate into ZXTM.
There is an application called keytool that manages these keystores. What we need to do is to get a tool to convert keys in keystore formats to standard openssl keys.
This is the link for a program that can handle different keystore formats (JKS, JCEKS) and extract openssl private keys to install on ZXTM:

Using it is pretty simple and this is almost the only way to get keys from keystores and load them on ZXTM.

If you want to see a Java code that does the same job, here is the link:

The code was posted by Andrew Morrow's at http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=2&thread=154587&message=449486

I hope this helps! Good luck!
