I personally do it with:
serv01 23: cat make_p12
openssl pkcs12 -export -in newcert.pem -inkey newkey.pem \
  -certfile /usr/local/Host/localhost/ssl/certs/AET-CA.pem\
    -name "$1" -out newcert.p12

(The path to your CA certificates may vary.) Then
  make_p12 "Name of Person"
Do not forget the "Name of Person", because otherwise Netscape will offer
you a certificate without name, so you cannot grab it from the list or
delete it!
