What tools can I use to generate X.509 certificates? [closed]

When I Google this, I find many places that recommend using the PluralSight tool to generate a certificate, but this tool is no longer available.

Does anyone know of another tool that will easily create and install a certificate?

Edit:

Tool available in a new URL: Plural-sight self cert tool.

You can use openssl to create self signed certificates. Several tutorial are available, following being one of them.

If you are looking for an admin tool you already got some good answers; however if you need to generate certificates from code here are a couple alternatives you can try out (full disclosure: I am a developer for these products), Versile Python (Git repos: python 2, python 3) and Versile Java (Git repo). They do not fully implement X.509, but enough to create basic certificates including some of the main certificate extensions.
