Hi there!!!

I'm trying to usethe openssl pkcs12 option from command line but I don't undestand very well the options.

I have a pair (private key and certificate file) both in PEM format. I want to get a PKCS#12 file which content both. I would like importa that (the PKCS12 file) into MS Outlook or Outlook Express.

My command line looks like:
C:\openssl pkcs12 -inkey llaveAM02.pem -certfile agente_monitor02.pem /
-CAfile certac.pem -out prueba1.p12 -export

The .p12 file is created but it's empty

Another questionIf I want programming my ownspkcs12 apps with the openssl API where can I get examples o hints??

Any help is usefull

TIA

There's an FAQ on my homepage and detailed examples. If you've got
certificates and keys in separate files liek that then:

openssl pkcs12 -in cert.pem -inkey key.pem -certfile cacerts.pem -export -name
some name

should do.

demos/pkcs12 has some samples. The manual pages for PKCS12_parse() and
PKCS12_create() also contain detailed info.
