Hi,

we have an inhouse CA which uses Netscapes CMS. Unfortunately CMS only
accepts DER encoded certificates AFAIK.
So I tried to change my generated PEM certificate to DER but I only get an
error msg.

System:
apache 1.3.6 + mod_ssl 2.3.5 + openssl 0.9.3a on linux 2.0.36/libc6

key generated with:
openssl genrsa -des3 -out server.key 1024
(I use a passphrase on that key)

certificate request generated with:
openssl req -new -days 730 -config sslconfig.cnf -key server.key -out
server.csr

Trying to change the encoding (as mentioned in
http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.3/ssl_faq.html#ToC28)
I get an error message:

unable to load certificate
117:error:0906D06C:PEM routines:PEM_read_bio:no start line:pem_lib.c:566:

What can I do to change the encoding?

Thanks for your help
Klaus
