Re: Changing the Nickname of SSL Certificate

Ryan,

Thank you for your response.

Could you please outline how these commands can be used?

I am familiar with certutil and pk12util, but not openssl command syntax. We 
tried importing the exported cert in the pk12 file (with Server-Cert 
nickname) to new nickname, but it looks like pk12util import uses the one in 
*.p12 file and ignores the command line option.

certutil's -M option allows to change the trust attributes of the 
certificate which is specified with
-n 'nickname' attribute, there is no option to modify nickname itself.

Thank you,
Aboli
