Allow client certificates to be encrypted

Open mdmddllrr opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

Hi, where can I enter the client secret / client passphrase ? Could not find any option to enter it.

The client secret cannot yet be decrypted with a password.

+1 Just ran into this issue.

When I attempted to connect without a passphrase entered, I got a crash error coming from an openssl function like badpasswordread. I didn't copy the error message, and now when I try to set the certificate file paths by clicking buttons in the Certificates tab, nothing happens. No file explorer appears, and I cannot select file paths.

@thomasnordquist are there any plans to allow private keys to be decrypted with a password?

Is it still the latest status that encrypted private keys are not supported? Seems like "manually" decrypting the private key (e.g. out of a .pem file) is the only possible workound as of today, correct?
