This doesn't work for me (FreeBSD 4.4 - mozilla). Mozilla dumps core.
Don't know why...

Great.  I tried the following:

root@net:/home/ron# openssl x509 -in ident.crt -out ident.p12 -outform
pkcs12

I tried to import this file into netscape and into mozilla.  No go -
they both complain that the cert is corrupted.  I guess this begs the
question: how does one go about creating the pkcs12 format certificate?

openssl pkcs12 -export -in server_cert.pem -inkey server_key.pem -out
yourcert.p12
Enter Export Password:
Verifying password - Enter Export Password:
