(Find your certificate in the `.lego` folder of current working directory.)
You will find your certificate in the `.lego` folder of the current working directory:
```console
$ ls -1 ./.lego/certificates
example.com.crt
example.com.issuer.crt
example.com.json
example.com.key
[maybe more files for different domains...]
```
where
- `example.com.crt` is the server certificate (including the CA certificate),
- `example.com.key` is the private key needed for the server certificate,
- `example.com.issuer.crt` is the CA certificate, and
- `example.com.json` contains some JSON encoded meta information.
For each domain, you will have a set of these four files.
Please note, that for wildcard certificates (`*.example.com`), the filenames will look like `_.example.com.crt`.
The `.crt` and `.key` files are PEM encoded x509 certificates and private keys.
If you're looking for a `cert.pem` and `privkey.pem`, you can just use `example.com.crt` and `example.com.key`.
