$ openssl pkey -in private-key.pem -out public-key.pem -pubout You may once again view the key details, using a slightly different command this time. $ openssl pkey -in public-key.pem -pubin -text The output for the public key will be shorter, as it carries much less information, and it will look something like this. Openssl x509 -in cert.crt -outform der -out cert.der DER to PEM openssl x509 -in cert.crt -inform der -outform pem -out cert.pem Combination. In some cases it is advantageous to combine multiple pieces of the X.509 infrastructure into a single file. One common example would be to combine both the private key and public key into the same.
To perform the following actions for Windows or Linux, you must have OpenSSL installed on your system.
Generating the Private Key -- Windows
In Windows:
1. Open the Command Prompt (Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt).
Generate Rsa Key Openssl
2. Navigate to the following folder:
![Text Text](/uploads/1/2/6/0/126088466/934229154.jpg)
C:Program FilesListManagertclwebbincerts
3. Type the following:
openssl genrsa -out rsa.private 1024
4. Press ENTER. The private key is generated and saved in a file named 'rsa.private' located in the same folder.
NOTE The number '1024' in the above command indicates the size of the private key. You can choose one of five sizes: 512, 758, 1024, 1536 or 2048 (these numbers represent bits). The larger sizes offer greater security, but this is offset by a penalty in CPU performance. We recommend the best practice size of 1024.
Generating the Public Key -- Windows
1. At the command prompt, type the following:
openssl rsa -in rsa.private -out rsa.public -pubout -outform PEM
2. Press ENTER. The public key is saved in a file named rsa.public located in the same folder.
