Versign SSL certificates

[lanmicro]

Hi Guys,

VeriSign seems to only send one file back when you buy a certificate from them.  They tell you to name the thing something.cer.  This does not jibe with what I read in the NetTalk documentation.  I don't have and did not receive a private key and the file they sent has a "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----" and a "----END CERTIFICATE----" but nothing extra that might be a private key. 

What am I missing?

Did you check the documentation inside NetTalk?

http://www.capesoft.com/docs/NetTalk/NetTalkWebSecure.htm#ExtractingFromIIS6

I got a certificate from RapidSSL which I installed on IIS 6.
Then I used the information in the above link to extract to a PFX file, and then ran the OpenSSL.exe to convert this to a PEM file.
And finally used notepad on the PEM file to split up into the CRT and the KEY file.

Regards,
Alan

Hi Alan,

Thanks for the advice, looks like it is going to work.  Just waiting for clients IT staff to open secure port so that I can test.
