Thanks

Hi there,

Can we continue the discussion in [TLS/SSL enabled cluster , SSL is working TSL not working with p12 cert password protected](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/tls-ssl-enabled-cluster-ssl-is-working-tsl-not-working-with-p12-cert-password-protected/157956/)? I assume it is the same issue, so there is no reason for you to open multiple topics
