Hello, I'm trying to use openssl to do encryption with some files and to create a key for postfix for use in authenticated smtp. For my first case i'm doing: openssl enc -blowfish -in /root/etc.tar.gz -out /root/etc.tgz.bf to try to encrypt a tar file. And for my second, trying to create a key for use with postfix's authenticated smtp feature: /usr/sbin/openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -nodes \ -config /etc/postfix/ssl/pst.cnf -out /etc/postfix/ssl/post.pem \ -keyout /etc/postfix/ssl/post.pem /etc/postfix is a symlink to /usr/local/etc/postfix and i'm using openssl 0.9.7c in both cases i'm getting a usage error, yet i'm following a tutorial for this. Any suggestions? Thanks. Dave.
