Hi,

I have public and private keys in separate .pem files that I would need to get into a JKS keystore somehow.

Tried using the -import command in KeyTool for this, which gives an "not an X.509 certificate" error.

I'm guessing the solution has to do with OpenSSL, but I'm not entirely sure what to do with it.

Would really appreciate any help with this, since I'm completely clueless with everything crypto-related.

Thanks in advance, --Rolf
