Obtaining a Commercially Signed Certificate
Choose a certificate authority (CA) from the many available on the Web and request a certificate in
PEM format. You need to send the certificate authorities a Certificate Signing Request (CSR). One

Signing Request" in "Security
If you receive more than one file from the certificate authority, such as a certificate file and a key
file, you must combine the contents into a single file with the following format:
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
several_lines_of_private_key_text

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
several_lines_of_server_certificate_text
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

private key and the actual certificate.
