Micro$ofts II$ cannot handle certificates, which are used for the Apache httpd. But wIth only two steps, those certificate can be converted using openssl.
- Convert the private key into NET format:
openssl rsa -in ApacheKey.key -out IISKey.key -outform NET
- Convert the certificate into pkcs12 format:
openssl pkcs12 -export -in ApacheCert.crt -inkey ApacheKey.key -out IISCert.p12
Done.
To add the certificate in IIS, first open the management console ‘mmc’, add the certificate management snap-in and import the certificate to the ‘Personal Certificates’. Unless you do this, the certificate is not available within IIS on the Security Wizard.
Needless to say, I really don’t like IIS for beeing that irritating.
