htsslpass

The htsslpass program is used to prompt for SSL private key passwords mod_ssl; it can be configured as an SSLPassPhraseDialog pipe filter in the mod_ssl configuration, /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf.

The program write any input from stdin to /dev/tty, and writes any input from /dev/tty to stdout. If no input is received after five minutes, the program times out.

Exit status is 0 on success or non-zero otherwise.
