I don't believe you can do this. You can convert an Apache certificate to
IIS using the command

openssl rsa -in apache.key -out iis.key -outform NET

I think you'll have to buy another cert, and then convert this one to run on
IIS as above when your IIS cert expires. then copy the above key onto a
floppy disk and put in your NT server (you do not want to send this key on
your LAN!). For extra security, eat the floppy disk when you are finished
(or keep it as a backup).

Subject: SSL Certs from IIS to Apache


Greetings,

Hope this is the right place to ask this, but I am
running into brick walls else where.

I need to convert a Thawte cert that was created and
is being used on an IIS server to work with
Apache/mod_ssl.

The Apache server is using the following:
Apache 1.3.12
Mod_SSL 2.6.3-1.3.12
OpenSSL 0.9.5a

I know I will need the private key and the cert
itself, and I also know that IIS stores them both
together in a key backup. Now how do I get the private
key and cert from this file.

Dosent IIS store the private key elsewhere? If so I
have the original cert, shouldnt it be a simple
install from there on?

I know this same situation probably has been asked a
thousand times, but any help will be appreciated
greatly

I just wish this client never choose NT, but hey were
not all perfect! :)


Thanks for any help!

EC
