use certimport.exe from ftp.xelerance.com:/openswan/windows/certimport/

If using plain X.509 IPsec without l2tpd, then you not need to enter anything,
but you need to be using an ipsec client to configure the Microsoft IPsec
stack. If it is an old install, they probably used "ipsec.exe", and you can
try lsipsectool from sourceforge.net instead.
If they used IPsec with L2TP, then you probably want to check /etc/ppp/chap-secrets
