Does anyone using SSL sign their own certificates without using Verisign or 
another company?  I've got my HTTPS server up and running fine, but it will 
give a message when entering the site from a browser:

Yellow !:  The security certificate was issued by a company you have not 
chosen to trust.  View the ertificate to determine whether you want to trust 
the certifying authority

Green Check:  The Security certificate date is valid

Yellow !:  The name on te security certificate is invalid or does not match 
the name of the site.

I've read where I need to setup a signing CA.  I've read through the MODSSL 
documentation, but I still can't get it.  Are there other recomendations or 
anyone know of any other info that may help?
