Hi, I have been able to create a CA, what command do I use to create an instance of that certificate. P.S: this is on a Windows OS. Thank you in advance for your help, David. ---

I don't fully understand your question. Are you sure this is related to kibana or are you looking for generic help on certificates ? ---
