It's a real PIA. We had to do one for a dev server that had secure content. It was not fun.

Is there some software or something built into IIS 5 that allows me to make self-signed certs? MakeCert.exe?

In that case, you don't need to buy anything at all. Just use a self-signed certificate as Jim suggested. > A "self-signed" certificate offers the same security as one that I > purchase? Certificates provide two things - they allow you to encrypt all communications between a browser and a server, and they allow you to verify that a site is what it identifies itself as being. Self-signed certificates encrypt everything just like any other certificate, but because they're not issued by a trusted certificate vendor, they don't let you verify anything.
