Use the certutil command
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:SSL has some examples

cd /opt/fedora-ds/alias
../shared/bin/certutil -L -d . -P slapd-yourinstancename-

Use certutil -H for help

certutil -D will delete a cert
I would strongly encourage you to make a backup of your expired cert and 
key first:
cd /opt/fedora-ds/alias
../shared/bin/pk12util -d . -P slapd-yourinstancename- -o saved.p12 -n 
"old cert name" ...

Use pk12util -H for help
