How to add Windows CA SSL to FileZilla Server

29/09/2010

You will need to use something like openssl to generate a Certificate Signing Request first. For Windows users you can install it on FileZilla server from here: Win32 OpenSSL v1.0.0a Light and also need Visual C++ 2008 Redistributables.

– Create personal key: openssl genrsa -out host.key 1024
– Create CSR file: openssl req -new -nodes -key host.key -out host.csr
On your CA just browse to http://localhost/certsrv/, select Request a Certificate, then Submit a certificate request file (open with notepad and copy/paste) using a base-64 encoded PKCS #10 file. The web form gives you the option to select a template to use – web server, and then download certificate (.cer) and certificate chain (.p7b)
– Open .cer, from Details click Copy to File, select  Base-64 and save it to host.cer
Open .p7b and export root certificate in Base-64 format to root.cer
– copy host.key + host.cer + root.cer host_fz.crt

Now you have host_fz.crt for File Zilla FTPS

That work for me.
