[solved] possibility to decrypt a config file without restoring it?

[3x3cut0r]

is it possible to decrypt an encrypted config file without using opnsense, i.e. recovery?
i ask because i want to look up something in an old config i created.
(and yes i still have the corresponding password)

thank you so much

The new opnsense-crypt tool can do this on the command line, but it still needs an OPNsense due to requiring the backup class. Doesn't make sense to publish a standalone tool.

ok that is fine. i have one ... i just do not want to recover the config. so how can i do it on my opnsense on the command line?

Sure, check the following

# man opnsense-crypt
