Dear OpenSLL users,

first of all, let me point out that I'm a total newbie in the
area of encryption. So maybe, my question could sound stupid ...

I'm using OpenSSL 0.9.8a-7build1 on Kubuntu Dapper.

openssl x509 -inform DER -in FILE.cer -noout -text
Then i've tried the following command(to convert the file):
openssl rsa -inform DER -outform PEM -in FILE.cer -out FILE.pem
[...]

And i just would like to create a PEM certificat file with two DER encrypted file(i need to do that for my wifi setup). Before all, i've verified that i can read this file with the following command:

Try using "openssl x509 -inform DER -outform PEM -in FILE.cer -out FILE.pem" (not openssl rsa ...) to convert the file.

See http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/x509.html

Hope it helps.
