-# Generate self signed certificate with GnuTLS under Windows
-
-
-## 1. Install GnuTLS
-
-Download and decompress the Windows version of GnuTLS from [here](http://www.gnutls.org/download.html)
-
-Add the directory `gnutls-3.4.9-w64/bin` to your PATH environment and restart your console
-
-## 2. Generate private.key
-
-Run the following command to create `private.key`
-```
-certtool.exe --generate-privkey --outfile private.key 
-```
-
-## 3. Generate public.crt
-
-The easiest way is to generate certificate is to specify its information under a file. You can find an example below. We'll call that file `cert.cnf`.
-
-```
-# X.509 Certificate options
-#
-# DN options
-
-# The organization of the subject.
-organization = "Example Inc."
-
-# The organizational unit of the subject.
-#unit = "sleeping dept."
-
-# The state of the certificate owner.
-state = "Example"
-
-# The country of the subject. Two letter code.
-country = "EX"
-
-# The common name of the certificate owner.
-cn = "Sally Certowner"
-
-# In how many days, counting from today, this certificate will expire.
-expiration_days = 365
-
-# X.509 v3 extensions
-
-# DNS name(s) of the server
-dns_name = "localhost"
-
-# (Optional) Server IP address
-ip_address = "127.0.0.1"
-
-# Whether this certificate will be used for a TLS server
-tls_www_server
-
-# Whether this certificate will be used to encrypt data (needed
-# in TLS RSA ciphersuites). Note that it is preferred to use different
-# keys for encryption and signing.
-encryption_key
-```
-
-Now, it is time to generate the public certificate using this command:
-
-```sh
-certtool.exe --generate-self-signed --load-privkey private.key --template cert.cnf --outfile public.crt 
-```
-
-That's it.

-# How to secure access to your Minio server with TLS [![Slack](https://slack.minio.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.minio.io)
-
-In this document, we will show how to configure your Minio servers with TLS certificates. Steps for Windows could be found [here](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/configure-minio-with-gnutls-windows.md).
-
-## 1. Prerequisites
-
-* Download Minio server from [here](https://docs.minio.io/docs/minio)
-
-## 2. Generate TLS certificate
-
-Minio supports only key/certificate in PEM format. 
-
-### With Letsencrypt
-
-Please explore [here](https://docs.minio.io/docs/generate-let-s-encypt-certificate-using-concert-for-minio)
-
-### With generate_cert.go (self-signed certificate)
-
-You need to download [generate_cert.go](https://golang.org/src/crypto/tls/generate_cert.go?m=text) which is a simple go tool for generating self-signed certificates but works for the most of cases.
-
-`generate_cert.go` already provides SAN certificates with DNS and IP entries:
-
-```sh
-  go run generate_cert.go -ca --host "10.10.0.3"
-```
-
-### With OpenSSL:
-
-Generate the private key:
-```sh
-openssl genrsa -out private.key 1024
-```
-
-Generate the self-signed certificate:
-```sh
-openssl req -new -x509 -days 3650 -key private.key -out public.crt -subj "/C=country/ST=state/L=location/O=organization/CN=domain"
-```
-
-## 3. Configure Minio with the generated certificate
-
-To make Minio aware about your generated key and certificate, you will need to put them under `certs` directory in your Minio config path (usually ~/.minio) using the names of `private.key` and `public.crt` for key and certificate files respectively.
-
-## 4. Install third parties CAs
-
-Minio can be configured to connect to other servers, whether Minio nodes or servers like NATs, Redis. If these servers use certificates that are not registered in one of the known certificates authorities, you can make Minio server trust these CAs by dropping these certificates under `~/.minio/certs/CAs/` in your Minio config path.

+In this document, we will configure Minio servers with TLS certificates. Steps for Windows could be found [here](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/configure-minio-with-gnutls-windows.md).
+
+## 1. Prerequisites
+
+* Download Minio server from [here](https://docs.minio.io/docs/minio)
+
+## 2. Generate TLS certificate
+
+### Linux
+
+Minio supports only key/certificate in PEM format on Linux.
+
+#### With Let's Encrypt
+
+Please explore [here](https://docs.minio.io/docs/generate-let-s-encypt-certificate-using-concert-for-minio)
+
+#### With generate_cert.go (self-signed certificate)
+
+You need to download [generate_cert.go](https://golang.org/src/crypto/tls/generate_cert.go?m=text) which is a simple go tool for generating self-signed certificates but works for the most of cases.
+
+`generate_cert.go` already provides SAN certificates with DNS and IP entries:
+
+```sh
+  go run generate_cert.go -ca --host "10.10.0.3"
+```
+
+#### With OpenSSL:

+Generate the self-signed certificate:
+```sh
+openssl req -new -x509 -days 3650 -key private.key -out public.crt -subj "/C=country/ST=state/L=location/O=organization/CN=domain"
+```
+
+### Windows
+
+Minio only supports key/certificate in PEM format on Windows. Currently we do not yet support PFX certificates.
+
+#### Install GnuTLS
+
+Download and decompress the Windows version of GnuTLS from [here](http://www.gnutls.org/download.html)
+
+Make sure to add extracted GnuTLS binary path to your system path.
+```
+setx path "%path%;C:\Users\MyUser\Downloads\gnutls-3.4.9-w64\bin"
+```
+
+You may need to restart your powershell console for this to take affect.
+
+#### Generate private.key
+
+Run the following command to create `private.key`
+```
+certtool.exe --generate-privkey --outfile private.key 
+```
+
+#### Generate public.crt
+
+Create a file `cert.cnf` with all the necessary information to generate a certificate.
+
+```
+# X.509 Certificate options
+#
+# DN options
+
+# The organization of the subject.
+organization = "Example Inc."
+
+# The organizational unit of the subject.
+#unit = "sleeping dept."
+
+# The state of the certificate owner.
+state = "Example"
+
+# The country of the subject. Two letter code.
+country = "EX"
+
+# The common name of the certificate owner.
+cn = "Sally Certowner"
+
+# In how many days, counting from today, this certificate will expire.
+expiration_days = 365
+
+# X.509 v3 extensions
+
+# DNS name(s) of the server
+dns_name = "localhost"
+
+# (Optional) Server IP address
+ip_address = "127.0.0.1"
+
+# Whether this certificate will be used for a TLS server
+tls_www_server
+
+# Whether this certificate will be used to encrypt data (needed
+# in TLS RSA ciphersuites). Note that it is preferred to use different
+# keys for encryption and signing.
+encryption_key
+```
+
+Generate public certificate
+```
+certtool.exe --generate-self-signed --load-privkey private.key --template cert.cnf --outfile public.crt 
+```
+
+## 3. Configure Minio with the generated certificate
+
+Copy the generated key and certificate under `certs` in your Minio config path (by default in your HOME directory `~/.minio` on Linux or `C:\Users\<Username>\.minio` on Windows) using the names `private.key` and `public.crt` for key and certificate files respectively.
+
+## 4. Install third-party CAs
+
+Minio can be configured to connect to other servers, whether Minio nodes or servers like NATs, Redis. If these servers use certificates that are not registered in one of the known certificates authorities, you can make Minio server trust these CAs by dropping these certificates under Minio config path (`~/.minio/certs/CAs/` on Linux or `C:\Users\<Username>\.minio\certs\CAs` on Windows).
