I need to create a JKS  The instructions I have for that refer to a
"KeyTool UI", but nobody can tell me what that is... I get vague
suggestions to search the Internet.  I'm not feeling like downloading
some tool I don't understand from some bizarre corner of the world, so
i'd like to find out how to do this with the 'keytool' that is already
shipped with my OS.

The instructions I have tell me to create a PKCS12 file, which I've
done.  After that, it says to open that .p12 file, right-click on the
keypair, and rename it to 'key'.  This is, apparently, important.  Then
I need to import a PEM certificate for the CA used by the far side of
the connection.  It then tells me to use the password I added when
creating the .p12 file, and save the result as subscriber.jks

I've looked at the man page for keytool, but it's gobledegook to me.  I
can't see anything that would rename a keypair.  I see a couple of
different ways that look like they might import the cert for the CA, but
since I don't know SSL terminology, I have no idea.  What would be the
magic sauce to accomplish the above?
