Hello

You did not mention if the certificate was to be used for www, mail or something else, but I suppose the intention was for www and apache?
There are several articles with regards to ssl certificates on the gentoo wiki, here is one for adding certificates to apache

This is the Virtual Mailhosting guide but it does handle SSL and it's a good document. So take a look.
