Hi, I need some more information. Witch file extension does your certificate have? With OpenSSL I' ve created last time a *.pem file and a *.key file from my *.pfx file. Christoph

I think cannot use *.CRT and *.CER with fortigate. I exported a *.pfx file from my IIS Server (Wildcard Certificate must be installed there). After that, I generated a *.key file witch contains the private key an a *.pem file witch contains the real certificate with openssl --> http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/openssl.htm

Did you create the certificate request for this certificate on the FortiGate? Do you have the private part of the certificate?

Worked like a charm, thank you very much! I exported from IIS to *.crt and *.key and FG imported this combination.
