If the filename hashing part is the hangup, here's a snippet of
unix shell stuff that is often used to do that part:

for i in `ls *.crt *.pem`
do
	[ ! -e $i.0 ] && ln -s $i $(openssl x509 -hash -noout -in $i).0 \
		> /dev/null 2>&1 \
		|| :
done

I.e. run `openssl x509 -hash -noout -in something.crt` and make a
symlink (or copy) of the cert file named with the resulting string,
appending ".0".
