I was using the Wireshark GUI (on Win32).  The steps you listed below were the same ones I had seen elsewhere and they worked correctly.

Are you using Wireshark or the command line 'tshark' for this decryption?  I have been trying to decrypt SSL traffic for the last couple of weeks but have not been successful as of yet.

 

    Here are the steps to export an IIS certificate to a private key file:

1. Click on View Certificate under Directory Security tab (when viewing the Defaul Web Site Properties).
2. Click on Details tab and Copy To File…
3. Click on Next for the Certificate Export wizard.
4. Choose Yes under Export Private Key option and click on Next.
5. Uncheck Enable strong protection option and click on Next.
6. Click on Next on the password dialog (don't enter a password).
7. Enter a file name such as C:\Temp\www.something.com-w3svc.pfx and click on Next.
8. Click on Finish and Click on OK.
9. Copy the exported file to a machine running OpenSSL and execute the following command:
10. openssl pkcs12 -in /path/to/www.something.com-w3svc.pfx -out /path/to/www.something.com-w3svc-Key.pem -nodes -nocerts

   In theory you should then be able to use a command such as the follows to decrypt SSL traffic:

tshark -V -r rsasnakeoil2.cap -o "ssl.keys_list: 127.0.0.1,443,http,/path/to/snakeoil2/rsasnakeoil2.key" -o "ssl.debug_file: /path/to/snakeoil2/ssldebug.txt" > output.txt

  Please let share your experiences if your decryption attempts are successfull.

 

  Kind regards,
