How to export private key from keystore?

843811Jul 31 2001 — edited Jan 19 2006
I have the same problem as following

Hi
Does anybody know, how to export a private key from a keystore in a PEM-Encoded format, i.e. that is what openSSL for Apache is looking for.

What I got until now from the Keystore (and that's very easy) is an instance of the Key-class of the Private Key. From that Key instance I can call the encoded()-method to get a PKCS8-encoded byte-array. Now, what I want to is a PEM-Encoded String.

Any help greatly apreciated!
