To create my self signed certificate & key I followed this online how-to. The how-to provides a CA script for download. . http://www.freebsdmadeeasy.com/tutorials/freebsd/create-a-ca-with-openssl.php followed by the first 2 openssl commands on this page http://www.freebsdmadeeasy.com/tutorials/web-server/apache-ssl-certs.php Then I did this command using the certificate outputted by the above openssl verify cacert.pem cacert.pem: C =US, ST = PA, L = Pittsburgh, CN = *.powerman.com error 18 at 0 depth lookup:self signed certificate ok Why does openssl think this is a error and how can I fix this so it will work?
