"I believe the issue you are having is due to the size of the encryption key. The ensim control panel generates a 1024 bit key, where the certificate you got was 2048 bits. What you need to do is generate a 2048 bit key and csr on your domain. You would need to login in to your domain through ssh and generate the files from the command line."
It sounds, actually, as though you're talking about Certs for a web server. In that case, here's the best answer: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/ssl/ssl_faq.html#aboutcerts which walks you through either creating a self-signed cert, or getting it ready to obtain a real one.
Mark: Thank you for replying. It's a real SSL cert. I found a page about openssl commands at NCSA at U. Illinois and when I tried an openssl command that might work, discovered that openssl is not available to me..... :-) Now awaiting reply from OLM Tech
You might want to mouse around the server - it could just be that openssl isn't in your path, which isn't unreasonable for an ordinary user. Check the man page, and see what it says, or rpm -ql openssl
