An SSL certificate is bound to both the server software (i.e., Microsoft to Microsoft) and the certificate common name (i.e., “www.company.com” or “acme.com”). If these remain identical, you can export the certificate and its private key from the original server and import it into the target server.
Apache
Import the Certificate
- Rename the files on the backup to conform to: 'https-admsrv-(servername).cert7.db' and 'https-admsrv-(servername).key3.db'
- Create a Trust Database for the server.
- In the Alias directory, replace the cert7.db and key3.db files of the admin server to the cert7.db and key3.db of the new site.
- Restart the Web Service.
Tomcat
- Copy the backed up Keystore file to your SSL Directory. This directory can sometimes be hidden. For example: /root/.keystore
- Edit the server.xml file to configure the SSL connector.
