Exporting the SSL certificate from a ReadyNas Ultra 4

Hello everyone

It's been a while since I've been on here, and I can't seem to find a solution to my issue.

The issue is as follows:

I recently got a TMG as an edge firewall, and I was planning on publishing the web-server on the NAS on the TMG, but the TMG demands a known certificate to allow publication. This raises the question; how do one export the self-generated SSL certificate the NAS creates?

I got SSH Access to the NAS, I just need some guidance on how to export the certificate



Best Regards Slasky

    If you log into the NAS with ssh, you can find the public certificate in ./.ssh/id_rsa.pub

    I've never attempted to export it, and don't have any experience with TMG - so I don't know if it will import a self-signed certificate.
  • TMG only needs the certificate to be within the trusted root cert store, so I Guess that'll work. I'll see if I can copy the certificate to a share or something like that and pick it up from there.
  • Okey, so I finally got around to try this, and I copied the certificate to one of the shares and try to import it on the server. What kind of certificate is this, because the server didn't recognize the format.

    Anyone have any ideas?
  • Nevermind, just published the server as a non-HTTP protocol and it worked like a charm :)
