E.5. INSTALLING THE CERTIFICATE
To install the obtained Certificate in the FHO Server, the file should be converted into .pem format.
Proceed as follows:
1. Open a Windows command prompt and navigate to \Openssl\bin
2. Type openssl.exe and press ENTER. The OpenSSL prompt appears
3. Execute the following command:
pkcs12 -in <cert.pfx> -out <cert.pem> -nodes
Where <cert.pfx> is the name of the PFX file (the path and quotes may be included) and
<cert.pem> is the name of the file that OpenSSL is to generate, for example, type:
pkcs12 -in "C:\FHO\cert.pfx" -out cert.pem –nodes
4. The command converts the data in the <cert.pfx> file to PEM format in the <cert.pem> file. The
PEM file contains all of the certificates that were in the PFX file:
• Private key
• Identity certificate
• Root certificate
• Intermediate certificate
Each of the certificates (Private Key, Identity certificate, Root certificate, Intermediate
certificate) are wrapped within headers, and these headers are part of the certificates. The PEM
file looks similar to the following (see Figure 1):
