Need to connect to IPcop openVPN

I need to connect openVPN from my desktop with knetworkmanager to a remote 
IPcop firewall.  The firewall generates a client .p12 configuration file, but 
knetworkmanager wants x.509 .pem certificates and key.  My desktop connects 
via wifi to my home router.

I found via google a script using openssl commands to convert the .p12 file to 
3 x.509 files (CA, cert and key), and set them knetworkmanager doesn't seem to 
do anything with them.  Right clicking on the task bar icon reveals the VPN I 
configured, but no right click on it only shows a grayed-out "Copy IP Address" 
and "Properties".

What have I not done properly?  Thanks for any help.
