<!-- Converted from text/plain format -->
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I'm creating an embedded system that will be using Dropbear as its SSH daemon. Several other programs that are on the system will also be using SSL keys to encrypt their traffic. In the interest of reducing the memory footprint, I'd like to generate one key pair and configure all of my daemons to use the same pair.<BR>
<BR>
When I was looking at the auto-generated DSS and RSA keys that Dropbear produces, they don't follow the same file format as what openssl generates. Is there some conversion step that needs to take place?<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for the help!<BR>
