How-To: Importing a Verisign Certificate

Verisign sends you information on your signed certificate in an email. You have to copy and paste it into a text file and then save it as a *.crt file before you can import it into your admin console. They offer a 14 day trial certificate if you want to test it out. You can create a CSR in Cornerstone or Titan and edit the file to copy and paste the data for Verisign; they will ask for that.

Be sure to spell out the name of your state in the CSR, Verisign will not accept abbreviations. To create a CSR, create a certificate in Cornerstone/Titan and the wizard will give you the choice to create a CSR. Note the file location or choose to put the *.csr file on your desktop or some other place that is easy to get to. You will need the text from it to send to Verisign.
