Background Knowledge on KeystoresThis topic offers some generic insights into keystores and how they are used for secure communications with the TLS (Transport Layer Security) protocol. While the first part provides the theoretical background, the second part shows examples for applying this in practice using OpenSSL.
Examples for creating keystores using OpenSSL
Few details to know when using "openssl"
Modifying an existing keystore

Modifying an existing keystore

With the command "openssl pkcs12" it is not really possible to modify an existing keystore, e.g. to add or remove a CA certificate or to renew an expired certificate. If something needs to be changed in a keystore, then the keystore must be re-created from scratch using "openssl pkcs12 -export ..." with input from PEM files. If the original PEM input files are no longer available, then it is possible to extract the content of the existing keystore as a whole or partially into PEM files.
