The certificate is made out of your public key. The public and private keys are completely separate (by definition) and you can't generate one from the other. How was this new.crt file generated? There just has to be a key file and a CSR somewhere! – Alexios Jan 7 '14 at 10:00.
Common OpenSSL Commands with Keys and Certificates
- Generate Private Key From Crt File
- Generate Private Key From Certificate Windows
- Extract Key From Crt
Crt and key files represent both parts of a certificate, key being the private key to the certificate and crt being the signed certificate. It's only one of the ways to generate certs, another way would be having both inside a pem file or another in a p12 container. In WHM the private keys are stored along with the corresponding CSRs and certificates in “SSL Storage manager”. To get there, you can click “SSL/TLS” on the home screen and then on the “SSL Storage manager”. To open the private key text, you will need to click on the magnifier button in the first column called “Key”.
