this

	https://directory.fedoraproject.org/docs/389ds/howto/howto-ssl-archive.html#importing-an-existing-self-sign-keycert-or-3rd-party-cacert

flops back-n-forth 'tween 'pk12util' & 'certutil usage, and manages to completely avoid any mention of dsconf (which appears to use certutil), so ...

... i'll join the confusion!

that said, it _seems_ clear that the .p12 _is_ needed, since there's no other key input mechanism.

it'd certainly be easier it dsconf simply allowed spec'n of 

	ca_cert
	cert
	key

in pem formats without the p12 'hoops' ...
