Sorry, this is long. I would like to generate a self-signed Certificate for internal testing purposes. I've downloaded OpenSSL 0.9.5a and have played a bit with the utilities. Netscape Enterprise (Suitespot) Server provides the means to generate key-pairs, and Certificate Signing Requests. Great. I can submit them to a trusted CA and pay the fee... There is not a utility for generating Certificates directly. The key-pairs are stored in a Berkeley DB 1.85 database format. Fine. I've downloaded DB185 utilities... With all these tools, I still can't get what I need. If I could generate a self-signed certificate from the CSR that Netscape produces, I could use Netscape admin server to install it, and life would be good. But I need the server's private key in either PEM or DER format. Using db_dump185 I can extract the certificate request and public key info in text format, but this is not very useful with the openssl utilities... I can use openssl to generate keys and signing requests, and even self signed certificates, but then I have no way to import them into the DB185 database format that Netscape requires. Has anyone seen this before? I can't be the first to walk this plank. I've read the docs, searched the FAQ's, and performed trial and error til blue... Please, someone put me out of my misery. Either tell me I can't get there from here, or please give me the magic formula. (I know, use Apache instead. Ha, ha.)
