here it hangs.

Plus, apache (at least in debian) don't honor the

vi /etc/apache2/mods-available/ssl.conf
        #SSLPassPhraseDialog  exec:/usr/share/apache2/ask-for-passphrase
        SSLPassPhraseDialog  exec:/passphrase-script

I can't even disable it to/or avoid it.
BTW, I never had any passport, the configuration is pretty fresh (from dpkg install scripts) and it should works out of the box, but it is broken out of the box somehow.

I am tried to point SSLPassPhraseDialog to my own scrip that echoes some pass and comment out SSLPassPhraseDialog - no luck apache never call my '/passphrase-script' script instead it hangs in the same place in the same manner (strace output the same).

Also I tried to rename *ask-password* related directories and scripts, also no luck.

Please help! Any solution is appreciated.
