Two ways:

1. If you're using the default, interactive process to generate the cert,
provide whatever.lvh.me when prompted for the certificate's "common name."
2. if you're passing a complete X.509 subject to the OpenSSL command
(--subj), make sure .../CN=whatever.lvh.me is in the subject.

See  https://github.com/newrelic/node-newrelic/blob/master/Makefile for an
example of generating a CA / cert pair from scratch unattended.
