[Freeipa-users] Replace with 3rd part certificates

Hi,

is it possible that ipa-server-certinstall couldnt handle private keys 
without password ?

i would test it with a self-signed certificate and test private key file 
secured with password, but i dont know whats happen after entering a 
valid private key unlock password. Could i stop the certificate import 
process at this point, so no change will happen to my productive ipa 
server ?

regards,
Andreas
