I am trying to create my own certificate using my own CA. I used the example in the FAQ
http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.8/ssl_faq.html#ToC29 So what file is "really my certificate", is the server.key? or the ca.key? I made a key using http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.8/ssl_faq.html#ToC28 What file should I be checking?
