Hi, new to deepin and new to these forums.  Got it installed and it really is elegant.  I'm looking forward to getting deeper in to it (pun intended).

Here is my current issue.  At my organization, we use WPA/WPA2 Enterprise login for our wireless, which authenticates the user against a radius server.  For it to work, you need to install the certificate authority and the user's certificates.  Deepin has a really nice interface for that within the wireless settings.  It identifies the protocol and then gives you all the fields to fill in, however I am not sure which certificates go into which field.

It asks for the following:
CA Cert - which I assume is our organization certificate for the authority
User Cert - which I thought would be the user's individual certificate
Private Key - or is it this one?

What are the suffixes for those files?  .crt?  .pem?  And is there documentation anywhere that would explain this?

Thanks for your help.
