GNU TLS reports "Base64 Decoding Error"

Submitted by roger on Tue, 2007-07-17 18:54

I recently had a problem getting STARTTLS working on exim4 on Debian 4.0 (Etch). It kept reporting: 

TLS error on connection from host (ehlo) [ip]
(cert/key setup: cert=/etc/ssl/certs/whatever.crt key=/etc/ssl/private/whatever.key:
Base64 decoding error.

This was confirmed by running gnutls-serv --debug 5 --x509certfile foo.crt --x509keyfile foo.key, which reported the same error.

qmail STARTTLS is slow

Submitted by roger on Fri, 2006-12-22 11:01

I've recently been struggling to reliably send email via my qmail server. I've got STARTTLS and SMTP AUTH enabled, in order to allow relaying for authenticated users. However, it's been really slow, and Thunderbird quite often times out and gives up on the connection.
