make aware
To make the client aware of the certificate.
If they need to access the certificate, rather than just be aware of its existence, then maybe "to make the certificate available to the client".

: The 'client' here has nothing to do with humans, and I don't think I would make a software environment "aware " of something

You are right about the ´client´ being non-human, of course, but "aware" is often used in networking speak so far as I know. An example: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/cisintwk/ito_doc/vpn... Google on "client aware" too.

: The best suggestion IMO. It is perfectly normal to talk of software environments being aware of something.

must've changed it while you were replying// software or computers "become familiar" with people's voices, I'd say (voice recognition)

to allow the client to (gain) access (to) the certificate
I think it's all about "access".

register
The expression "register a certificate" is widely used for this sort of procedure. I think "register the certificate with the client" is just what is meant here. See the reference for an example.
