Hi All,
Is it necessary to call a certificate with extension of .0? For example, if
we have a certificate of type PEM, is it ok to name it certificate.pem or
we have to name it certificatepem.0? I am using openssl-0.9.7d
Thanks in advance for the help.

No, you can use whatever extension you want. .pem and .cer are often

The .0, .1 etc suffix is from the way the Apache web server
(I guess its SSL module) tries to find certificates in a
directory. It hashes the subject name then looks for the
certificate under .0 then .1 etc so the digit
is used for collisions. I've never seen a .1 and we have
a BIG directory.

Oops, I actually knew that but seem to have forgotten . There is a
command to generate symlinks for the CA files, do a
$ c_rehash .
in the directory with your trusted CA certificates.

Hi,
Well, I'am using Perl modules over openssl, not openssl directly.
Nevertheless, whatever the file extension you are using,
it seems to me that the way your certificate is managed mainly depends
upon the command args or environment variables you are using
when you run this or that command.
So,
