Alright, I was stupid. More so, I really need to undo my mistake. I did try searching for this, but either no one has made the same dumb error I did or I just did not see it on here. lol Here are the instructions from step 7 of the ISPConfig installation: In step 7 ("Encrypting RSA private key of CA with a pass phrase for security [ca.key]")and step 8 ("Encrypting RSA private key of SERVER with a pass phrase for security [server.key]") of the certificate creation process you are asked if you want to encrypt the respective key now. Choose n there because otherwise you will always be asked for a password whenever you want to restart the ISPConfig system which means it cannot be restarted without human interaction! Guess what I didn't do? That's right I failed to follow those suggestions and encrypted the files. SO. What can I do to undo my mistake? Thanks for your help in advance. Ace
