A certificate.crt and privateKey.key can be extracted from your Personal Information Exchange file (certificate.pfx) using OpenSSL. Follow this article to create a certificate.crt and privateKey.key files from a certificate.pfx file.

1. Generate Private Key File From Pem
2. Get Private Key From Csr
3. Windows Create Private Key

Several tools exist to generate SSH public/private key pairs. The following sections show how to generate an SSH key pair on UNIX, UNIX-like and Windows platforms.

• If you can, disable password logins in your “sshdconfig” file (on the server) and use keys instead. In case you travel and can’t carry your laptop with you, just keep your private key on a USB stick and attach it to your physical keychain. Your server will be much safer this way. Generate Public/Private SSH Key Pair.
• To sign an assembly with a strong name, you must have a public/private key pair. This public and private cryptographic key pair is used during compilation to create a strong-named assembly. You can create a key pair using the Strong Name tool (Sn.exe). Key pair files.
• Jun 09, 2019 This article describes how to recover a private key after you use the Certificates Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in to delete the original certificate in Internet Information Services (IIS). You delete the original certificate from the personal folder in the local computer's certificate store.
• See Example: SSL Certificate - Generate a Key and CSR. Tableau Server uses Apache, which includes OpenSSL. You can use the OpenSSL toolkit to generate a key file and Certificate Signing Request (CSR) which can then be used to obtain a signed SSL certificate. Steps to generate a key and CSR.
• See Example: SSL Certificate - Generate a Key and CSR. Tableau Server uses Apache, which includes OpenSSL. You can use the OpenSSL toolkit to generate a key file and Certificate Signing Request (CSR) which can then be used to obtain a signed SSL certificate.
• Save the text file in the same folder where you saved the private key, using the.pub extension to indicate that the file contains a public key. If you or others are going to use an SSH client that requires the OpenSSH format for private keys (such as the ssh utility on Linux), export the private key.

Generating an SSH Key Pair on UNIX and UNIX-Like Platforms Using the ssh-keygen Utility

UNIX and UNIX-like platforms (including Solaris and Linux) include the ssh-keygen utility to generate SSH key pairs.

1. Navigate to your home directory:
2. Run the ssh-keygen utility, providing as filename your choice of file name for the private key:

   The ssh-keygen utility prompts you for a passphrase for the private key.

3. Enter a passphrase for the private key, or press Enter to create a private key without a passphrase:

   Note:

   While a passphrase is not required, you should specify one as a security measure to protect the private key from unauthorized use. When you specify a passphrase, a user must enter the passphrase every time the private key is used.

   The ssh-keygen utility prompts you to enter the passphrase again.

4. Enter the passphrase again, or press Enter again to continue creating a private key without a passphrase:
5. The ssh-keygen utility displays a message indicating that the private key has been saved as filename and the public key has been saved as filename.pub. It also displays information about the key fingerprint and randomart image.

Generating an SSH Key Pair on Windows Using the PuTTYgen Program

Generate Private Key File From Pem

The PuTTYgen program is part of PuTTY, an open source networking client for the Windows platform.

1. Download and install PuTTY or PuTTYgen.

   To download PuTTY or PuTTYgen, go to http://www.putty.org/ and click the You can download PuTTY here link.

2. Run the PuTTYgen program.
3. Set the Type of key to generate option to SSH-2 RSA.
4. In the Number of bits in a generated key box, enter 2048.
5. Click Generate to generate a public/private key pair.

   As the key is being generated, move the mouse around the blank area as directed.

6. (Optional) Enter a passphrase for the private key in the Key passphrase box and reenter it in the Confirm passphrase box.

   Note:

   While a passphrase is not required, you should specify one as a security measure to protect the private key from unauthorized use. Windows product key generator vista. When you specify a passphrase, a user must enter the passphrase every time the private key is used.

7. Click Save private key to save the private key to a file. To adhere to file-naming conventions, you should give the private key file an extension of .ppk (PuTTY private key).

   Note:

   The .ppk file extension indicates that the private key is in PuTTY's proprietary format. You must use a key of this format when using PuTTY as your SSH client. It cannot be used with other SSH client tools. Refer to the PuTTY documentation to convert a private key in this format to a different format.
8. Select all of the characters in the Public key for pasting into OpenSSH authorized_keys file box.

   Make sure you select all the characters, not just the ones you can see in the narrow window. If a scroll bar is next to the characters, you aren't seeing all the characters.

9. Right-click somewhere in the selected text and select Copy from the menu.
10. Open a text editor and paste the characters, just as you copied them. Start at the first character in the text editor, and do not insert any line breaks.
11. Save the text file in the same folder where you saved the private key, using the .pub extension to indicate that the file contains a public key.
12. If you or others are going to use an SSH client that requires the OpenSSH format for private keys (such as the ssh utility on Linux), export the private key:
    1. On the Conversions menu, choose Export OpenSSH key.
    2. Save the private key in OpenSSH format in the same folder where you saved the private key in .ppk format, using an extension such as .openssh to indicate the file's content.

Solution

Part 1: Create an MMC Snap-in for Managing Certificates

Get Private Key From Csr

1. From the Web server, click Start > Run
2. In the text box, type mmc
3. Click OK
4. From the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) menu bar, select File > Add/Remove Snap-in
5. Click Add
6. From the list of snap-ins, select Certificates
7. Click Add
8. Select Computer account
9. Click Next
10. Select Local computer (the computer this console is running on)
11. Click Finish
12. In the snap-in list window, click Close
13. In the Add/Remove Snap-in window, click OK
14. Save these console settings for future use
    

Part 2: Export the Certificate with Private Key attached

Windows Create Private Key

1. Open the Certificates (Local Computer) snap-in you added, and select Personal > Certificates
2. The Subject field of the certificate lists the Common Name (CN). (Click Tools > Internet Options > Content to view the Common Name if you are not sure)
3. Right-click on the desired certificate and select All Tasks > Export. The Certificate Export Wizard opens
4. Select Yes, export the private key
5. Click Next
6. In the Export File Format window, ensure the option for Personal Information Exchange - PKCS#12 (.pfx) is selected
7. Select Include all certificates in the certificate path if possible and then click Next. (If you do not select the Include all certificates in the certificate path if possible option, your server may not recognize the issuer of the certificate, which may result in security warnings for your clients.
8. De-select Require Strong Encryption. (This may cause a password prompt every time an application attempts to access the private key or it may cause IIS to fail).
9. Click Next
10. Enter and confirm a password to protect the PFX file and click Next
11. Choose a file name and location for the export file (do not include an extension in your file name; the wizard automatically adds the PFX extension for you)
12. Click Next
13. Read the summary and verify that the information is correct. Pay special attention to where you saved the file. Ensure that the information is correct
14. Click Finish
