A couple of utilities have been available for a while for doing the conversion, either openssl or Pvk2Pfx but I’ve always shied away from installing new software if at all possible to simplify maintenance.įortunately I’ve discovered that certutil now has an option to do this conversion ‘-MergePFX’ However, the one stumbling block I came across was that Vault would export the certificate as a PEM file and a Private Key file, whereas Windows could only install and use this pair as a PFX file. With Hashicorp Vault now being available in our environment I started looking at migrating over to using this, as the integration with Chef was far superior. Originally I wrote the recipe to interact with Windows PKI, but it was a bit clunky and I was never really happy with it. I’ve just been working on our Chef recipe that installs a CA signed cert for the Windows RDP service.
