hi,

        I' ve just installed the latest version of openssl (0.9.5) and
apache (1.3.12) on my (great) linux box.
After testing the whole thing with a selfsigned cert (with make certificate
TYPE=test) and the impression that 
'that's work' I have made a certificate request (custom) and asking for a
'test' certificate on the website of 'thawte'.
copied the ssl.key/server.key to the right place (according to
SSLCertificateKeyFile directive) and the return from ssl.csr/server.csr in
ssl.crt/server.crt (with SSLCertificateFile)
apachessl starts and nothing in the log, the secure connection is made but
when i go in the properties of a protected page
i see the following

Certificate Information: This certificate cannot be verified to a lack of
information and the certification path show only
my website name with a '!' on it not the full path to thawte Root Cert.

when i made the cert with 'make' i'm asked twice about the same (surrely not
but don't really see the difference)
informations (like common name, country, ...) the first for the CA and the
second for my CN.
I don't really know what i exactly have to write for the first demand ... is
at that point I made the wrong thing ? or
simply this problem is because i have just a 'test' cert from thawte ?

I'm new in crypto software and all help would be -very- appreciated , thanks
!
