That was the only way I was able to get it to work; running it directly from outside of Wine wouldn't give any response but that ended up popping out a .der that I could use directly from linux.

What a relief; wasn't ready to get my Windows box back up just to regenerate a stupid key!
Thanks for the tip, I didn't know you could run wine in this way. It didn't work by simply copy/pasting your command line, which is hardly a surprise though. I'll try to fiddle with it and see what gives.

By the way, the script I have is adeptkey.pyw, and not ineptkey, did I get the wrong version of the scripts or is it a pun?

Thanks,
