Did you re-create your private key? I hope you kept a backup otherwise
you might have to get your CA to re-sign the certificate from scratch.
If they try to charge you again just say "my key has been compromised
and I'd like a replacement". They should do it for free.

No particular guide (other than the one Mark posted in reply). To use
PKCS12 files, just add "-storetype PKCS12" to every command you
execute. Otherwise, the default is the JKS "Java KeyStore" keystore type
.
