problem using SSLMATE

Post by drhodes » Fri Oct 20, 2017 12:08 am

Hi - i'm trying to use SSLMATE to purchase a cert for my openvpnAS. However, their certificate model involves a server app that generates the CSR and private keys. I can't find a way to use my CSR generated from openssl/openvpn. I can import an existing cert of course but that's after the fact.

has anyone run into this issue? or is there a way to use an externally generated CSR/pKey with openvpnAS?

thanks, d

It doesn't really matter where the CSR is generated or where the private key is generated, so long as you actually HAVE the private key, and the certificate.
I'm still alive, just posting under the openvpn_inc alias now as part of a larger group.
