    you recived your public and private seperatly, none of them are the root certificate.

    The root would be the top level certificate, you can open it, export and then upload.

    But you cannot use the exported file to create new certificates, so all you clients would need to use the same PFX from you SSL, i would STRONGLY suggest you consider using another certificate for client access. Also i am unaware if all the clients can use the same PFX to identify them selves with.
