When I created my private key I never specified an alias.

I used:

openssl genrsa -des3 -out domain.com.key 1024

Then my CSR was created with:
openssl req -new -config openssl.cnf -key domain.com.key -out domain.com.csr

I sent to Verisign and received my certificate.

The problem is that Verisign documentations states for tomcat installation:

"Enter the following command to import your SSL Certificate:
 
keytool -import -alias <your_alias_name> -keystore <your_keystore_filename> 
-trustcacerts -file <your_certificate_filename>
 
NOTE: The alias name in this command must be the same as the alias name
used during the generation of the private key and CSR."
 
Unfortunately, I didn't specify an alias name when I created the private
key and CSR.

My question: Is there a default alias for the key and csr when I create it? Can 
I retrieve this alias? 
Or do I have to recreate my key and csr and get it signed all over again?
