Cannot access private key

[dougz]

Anyone know what the message "Cannot access private key" means during PIX startup?

I am running a PIX515 and I just upgraded to 6.3(4). I am reconfiguring the PIX and currently it is doing nothing but very basic connectivity.

Here is the startup:

Seems that your hostname or domain name changed and the ssh rsa key is not valid !

Do that to fix it:

ca zeroize rsa key

ca gen rsa key 1024

ca save all

hope that helps

Got it!

Thanks for the help. I have a couple of other minor issues but I will put them in separate posts.

Thanks again,

Doug.

The pleasure is mine,

please close it as solved, so they will remove the post from the list.

Thanks

Sorry about that. I did not know I needed to.
