Fake Certificates

[TWIN MONOLITH]

I'm trying to make a fake certificate on my SSL apache using make 
certificate TYPE=test. For some reason, it worked on one of my machines 
and fails on all the rest. The error looks like this:

STEP 3: Generating X.509 certificate signed by Snake Oil CA [server.crt]
Certificate Version (1 or 3) [3]:
Signature ok
subject=/C=XY/ST=Snake Desert/L=Snake Town/O=Snake Oil, 
Ltd/OU=Webserver Team/CN=www.snakeoil.dom/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Getting CA Private Key
Verify: matching certificate & key modulus
Verify: matching certificate signature
../conf/ssl.crt/server.crt: /C=XY/ST=Snake Desert/L=Snake Town/O=Snake 
Oil, Ltd/OU=Certificate Authority/CN=Snake Oil 
CA/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
error 10 at 1 depth lookup:certificate has expired
OK

I don't know why it's comparing whatever I make to the snake oil 
example. This didn't happen on my first machine. I need this on all my 
machines to migrate my perl files around, and before I turn in 
mod_perl. Does this certificate look up my local IP number? Is that why 
I can only make one, and not more?

Anyone seen this before?

Thanks,

Mark
