Apache OpenSSL Private Key
Hi, I've got a large group of web sites that use SSL. Is there a way to
restart Apache and type in *only* the pass phrase for *new* SSL
certificates?

In other words, I don't want to type in 50 pass phrases to add in one
new SSL cert. I tried adding the new cert to httpd.conf and doing an
"httpd reload" instead of "httpd restart", but that resulted in a "httpd
dead but pid..." error message from "httpd status". The only thing that
seems to work for adding SSL certs is "httpd restart" which results in
50 pass phrase requests (ahhhh!).

Any suggestions?

I really doubt it.

But you'll have much better luck getting this type of question answered on
the mod_ssl user list:
