(PEM is Base64 encoded certificate, DER is a binary format).
If the client wants a "crt" that is actually a DER encoded , just change the extension and give it to them (CER is pretty much just a DER encoded cert). If the client wants a "crt" that is actually a PEM encoded cert: openssl x509 -in cert.cer -inform DER -out cert.crt -outform PEM will do what you want. > Any help, hind, link or anything else is greatly appreciated as I am at an > dead end :( > Have fun. -- Patrick Patterson President and Chief PKI Architect, Carillon Information Security Inc. http://www.carillon.ca ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
