Problem with cert

Hello,

I am trying to connect to a secure server using curl.

I have generated a Self-signed certificate using openssl and used that
as curl's certificate parameter

curl --cert self_signed.cert https://my.secure.server

but to no avail because I get this message:

curl: (35) unable to set private key file

I wonder if this .cert should somehow be converted to pem format.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

Philippe
