Probably not doable. There was a discussion of this on the OpenSSL list a
couple of months ago. Just having the full cert (pub+priv) in question
doesn't necessarily mean you can build a sniffer that can decrypt SSL
traffic. If static (RSA) keys are used, then yes, you can decrypt, but
nothing I know of defaults to those SSL algorithms anymore.
See http://ssldump.sourceforge.net/TROUBLESHOOTING for a good explanation
of why decrypting SSL traffic via a network sniffer isn't easy.
