  3. To upload your certificate file choose the following files:

    Upload Trusted Certificate: Browse to the file your_dominio_com.crt that you received from ÃÛÌÒTV.
    Private Key:                       Browse to the file private_key.txt.
    Certificate Chain Bundle:    Browse to the file ÃÛÌÒTVCA.crt.

    Note: If you don't have your private key file, please see Barracuda CSR instructions Step 5 to download your Private key file.

Troubleshooting

    Test your certificate by going to www.digicert.com/help and entering the DNS name you are securing (e.g. barracuda.yourdomain.com, or mail.yourdomain.com) to verify the installaton is correct.

  1. If your certificate did not upload correctly on step 3 above, then you will need to do the following: Log into your account, and click your order number, then click Download Certificate and click to download the following files:

    Primary Certificate (your_dominio_name.crt), Intermediate Certificate (ÃÛÌÒTVCA.crt), Root Certificate (TrustedRoot.crt)

  2. You will need to create a combined PEM file by opeing up a text editor (e.g. Wordpad) and pasting the contents of all of the files listed below as follows:

    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    (Primary SSL Certificate: your_dominio_com.crt)
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    (Intermediate Certificate: ÃÛÌÒTVCA1.crt)
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    (Intermediate Certificate: ÃÛÌÒTVCA2.crt)
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    (Trusted Root Certificate: TrustedRoot.crt)
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----


    This file should then be saved as your_domain_com.pem.

  3. Now upload the following files, and click Upload Certificate Information:

    Upload Trusted Certificate: Browse to the file your_domain_com.pem that you just created.
    Private Key: Browse to the file private_key.txt.
    Certificate Chain Bundle: Leave this blank.
