PKI encryption just does not work like that. Read up on the Openssl docs
and especially Ralf Engelschall's mod_ssl docs. The rsasecurity web site
PKI FAQ is also a good one to read, mark, learn and inwardly digest it
all. Given the existence of Carnivore and wireless networks, it's a
'must' for tomorrow's computing.
Best,
