Lost passphrase recovery for SSL
Today is friday and I'm a desperate sysadmin. I issued a demand of certificate for an HTTPS server, and just received it after more than a long week of waiting, but while my request was processed I lost the passphrase that secured my private key.

Given that I have the private key and the public key jointly generated with the passphrase (that I knew by the time), could there be a clever way to recover the lost passphrase.

Thanks in advance.
