8.2.4. Export an SSL Certificate for Clients
When SSL is enabled on a server, the clients require a copy of the SSL certificate to establish a secure connection.
The following example commands can be used to export a client certificate and the private key from the broker's NSS database:
pk12util -o <p12exportfile> -n <certname> -d <certdir> -w <p12filepwfile> openssl pkcs12 -in <p12exportfile> -out <clcertname> -nodes -clcerts -passin pass:<p12pw>
For more information on SSL commands and options, refer to the OpenSSL Documentation. On Red Hat Enterprise Linux type:
man openssl.
