        Could be wrong but believe they are in /cf/conf/config.xlm.

          They are indeed in /conf/config.xml, they are not stored on the filesystem individually unless a program needs access to them. For example, if a certificate is active in IPsec or in use as an OpenVPN server certificate, it can be found in the configuration directories for those services.
