Automatic startup of Apache2 -D SSL?

chmod

I have apache2 installed and working from portage. I have a couple of SSL hosts that are working nicely.

The problem is: I'd like to add apache2 to the default runlevel so it will start on boot. But my SSL certs have passwords. So when apache starts it asks for the passphrase of the cert.

Is there a way to make it start and put the passphrase in a startup script or something? Or do I just need to remake the certs without passwords?

Thanks!

As it makes no difference in security, you can simply remove the passphrase from your key:
