I'm not exactly sure what "make certificate" is in this context. =) So, I may be confused. But, if has the end result of creating a dummy certificate, that's bad. But, if it creates a CSR, then that *might* be okay. However, I'd rather see the whole key generation thing in the docs. Just to make sure that people *read* the docs. And, the OpenSSL docs have documentation for this anyway, IIRC. -- justin
