Well, "correct" might not be the proper description here. Since Wireshark is looking for a private key and windows is showing you the public certificate. The "BEGIN CERTIFICATE" is giving that away too :-) > The Blue Coat says its certs are in PKCS#7 format which from > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PKCS looks pretty standard. > > Any suggestions on how to convert it properly? Well, since this file contains the certificate and not the private key that linked to it, it can't be converted. You will need to find the private key on the box. Which of course might be difficult since it is something that the box would want to keep secret. Anyone that has this key, can combine it with the publicly available certificate and impersonate the whole box. And every client is told to trust the (impersonated) box.
