[Ethereum] Getting private keys of geth accounts

accountsblockchainexportgo-ethereumprivate-key

Just the opposite of this question How to import a plain private key into geth or Mist? I would like to know how can I obtain the private keys of the accounts created with geth in this way:

$ geth --testnet account new

I've been looking for private key files on ~/.ethereum/keystore but there is only one file for coinbase account. No files for the rest of accounts created.

How can I obtain those missing files? Why are they missing? Thx!

I've already seen How can I import geth accounts into eth? but problem is in my system keystore files don't even exist for most of the geth accounts created, except coinbase.

Best Answer

For test net, the folder you are looking for is ~/.ethereum/testnet/keystore/.
