IIRC Net_SSLeay (as OpenSSL) expects certificates to be in PEM (ascii)=20
format and DER (binary). Convert with
openssl x509 -inform der -in mycert.cer -out mycert.pem


To fix up passwords for ADs UnicodePwd attribute syntax, you'll need=20
something like:

use Unicode::String qw(latin1 utf16);
sub MakeUnicodePwd($)
{
    my $u =3D latin1("\"".$_[0]."\"");
    $u->byteswap();
    return $u->ucs2;
}
