Hi,
        I have a Netscape CA.  I can get the root certificate off of it
without any problems, but I don't want anyone else in the world to have
access to it.  So we thought we'd put the cert on our web page for people to
collect.  It has worked in the past with the following perl script:

# Open and load the certificate file.
open(FP, "</usr/local/ssl/test.der");
$cert = '';
$cert .= $_ while (<FP>);
close(FP);
$len = length($cert);

# Send the certificate to the browser.
print "Content-type: application/x-x509-ca-cert\n";
print "Content-length: $len\n";
print "\n";
print $cert;

        The test.der certificate was created with openssl, and will import
into Netscape4.6 and IE5.5.  The Netscape CA binary format (appears to be
der) will import into Netscape but not IE5.5.  IE complains: "invalid
Security Certificate file".

        Does anyone know how I can use openssl to change it to a valid
certificate file for IE5.5?

Thanks,
Anthony Wyatt
