Try: #!/bin/bash case "$1" in "servername1.com:443") if [ $2 = RSA ]; then echo "passwordnumberone" fi ;; "servername2:443") if [ $2 = RSA ]; then echo "passwordnumber2" fi ;; esac Set the script as the passphrase command in httpd.conf The only problem is that the password is in clear text, make sure to chmod 700 the script.
